Hi Dev Community! 👋
I’ve always been frustrated with generic business name generators. You find a "cool" name, only to realize the .com domain is taken or costs a fortune. As a developer, I decided to scratch my own itch and build something specialized.
Enter WhizName.
🛠 The Tech Stack
I wanted something fast, lightweight, and server-side efficient.
Backend: PHP (Classic, reliable, and perfect for quick API integrations).
AI Engine: Llama 3.3 (Fine-tuned via API to understand specific business context).
Frontend: Tailwind CSS (For that clean, modern UI).
Infrastructure: Hosted on a Hostinger VPS running Nginx.
🏗 Challenges I Overcame
The Domain Struggle: I integrated a real-time .com availability check so users don't fall in love with taken names.
UX over Design: As a tech guy, I’m not a fan of over-complicated designs. I kept it minimal—clean lines, high readability, and zero italic fonts (just a personal preference for a solid look!).
SEO Automation: I built a dynamic routing system for niche pages to capture long-tail search traffic directly.
🚀 Lessons Learned
Building a Micro-SaaS isn't just about the code; it's about solving a specific problem for a specific group of people. By narrowing the focus to 10 niches, the AI prompts became much more accurate and the results more brandable.
I’d love for you guys to check it out and give me some technical feedback!
