"Publish it. You have already made it. Why don't you publish it?" Huang Yiming said casually, "But I think that since you can search so many BBS, you might as well add other websites to it. As long as it's a website on the Internet, you can collect it and use keywords to search. This way, more people can use it!"
"But what if no one enters our website?" Little Jared asked with some concern.
"Why are you worried about this? Do you expect to become a billionaire with this website?" Huang Yiming typed. Little Jared couldn't help but laugh.
Yes, I think too much. If no one sees it, no one will see it. I just want to do it!
"But if no one sees it at all, it will be a loss. Well, I will give you something!" Huang Yiming suddenly patted his head and said.
"What is it?" Little Jared asked curiously.
"This … www.11111.us" Little Jared was stunned when he saw the URL Huang Yiming entered in the post.
"This is a domain name, and it is also my gift to you!" Huang Yiming laughed.
"A domain name with five 1s, this will be very expensive!" Although Little Jared was depressed, he had been on the Internet for so long. Naturally, he knew how rare it was to get a domain name with five 1s.
"It's nothing. A friend of mine gave it to me. I will give it to you!" Huang Yiming said indifferently, but he actually lied here. This domain name was not given to him by Huang Yiming's friend, but Huang Yiming bought a batch of domain names himself.
A while ago, Huang Yiming listened to his friend's words, saying that domain names were a good business in the future. When the Internet developed in the future, it was normal to sell a domain name for tens of thousands of dollars.
Huang Yiming believed it, so he spent a total of 10,000 dollars to buy 20 top-level domain names from others. And www.11111.us was just one of them. Huang Yiming bought it for 300 dollars.
Unfortunately, the price of domain names did not skyrocket in the future as his friend said. Instead, it could not be sold at all.
This was because there were still a lot of empty domain names. Other than some easy to remember domain names, there were a lot of domain names in the world that no one had applied for. No one who wanted to start a website would be willing to spend money to buy a domain name. Wouldn't it be better to apply for a free domain name?
Therefore, Huang Yiming's domain name was ruined in his hands. Huang Yiming was so angry that he kept shouting. Now that Little Jared wanted to start a website, Huang Yiming gave the best domain name among his 20 domineering domain names to Little Jared.
"Thank you!" Little Jared took the domain name directly and said, "Huang, what do you think the name of our website should be?"
"Well, it's best to combine it with the domain name. Don't our domain name have five 1s? Then, since your website is specifically used to search for websites, let's call it May Day Search! "Huang Yiming casually read out a name that would resound throughout the world in the future.
"Alright!" Little Jared unified them without hesitation. A few days later, the May Day search was launched, and at this time, the power of the domain name came into play.
At this time, although there were already portals on the Internet, there were no portals as powerful as Yahoo. There were no websites that could cover the whole Internet at all. Therefore, most of the Internet names had to be manually entered when they went online.
At the same time, some netizens had nothing to do, so they liked to enter a convenient URL on the URL bar and click on it to see if they could find any interesting websites.
As one could imagine, the website www.111111.us became one of the most frequently entered URLs by netizens. On the first day of the launch of the May Day search, the backend statistics counted more than 2,000 hits.
When these netizens accidentally entered the May Day search, they found that it was a search website that could be used to search for relevant websites by entering keywords. These netizens instantly fell in love with the May Day search, which was simply a magical tool for surfing the Internet. They added it as their favorites without hesitation, and then whenever they needed to find an interesting website, they would enter the May Day search first.
Therefore, the number of views of the May Day search website swelled at an unimaginable speed. On the first day of the launch, there were 2,000 views.
A week later, the number had swelled to 12,000, and a month later, it had become 50,000.
Because at this time, through word of mouth among netizens, as well as various discussions and posts in the BBS, a large number of netizens began to know that there was such a magical website on the Internet, and an effective tool that could help them achieve functions that they could not imagine before. The May Day search became popular even if it did not want to!
Therefore, after three months, the daily average number of views of the May Day search was as high as 100,000, which was almost equal to the number of netizens in the United States. This was a very amazing result.
But little Jared did not know this. After the launch of the website, he did not care about it anymore. His main energy was not on the BBS. Then he was surprised to find that the traffic of the BBS began to increase rapidly, and the number of members soon exceeded 500.
At this time, the members of the BBS began to complain that the BBS had become more and more laggy recently. It took two or three minutes to open a strategy, and the website often crashed.
Little Jared hurriedly checked the server and found that the server was in a state of overload, and Huang Yiming's phone line could no longer support such a huge traffic.
After checking the server urgently, little Jared found that it was not the BBS that occupied most of the traffic, but the May Day search website, which had reached a terrifying number of 100,000 views a day.
At this time, little Jared had to get more servers, and at the same time, change the phone line to a fiber-optic line, otherwise these websites would be lagged to the point where they could not be opened.
Generally, netizens began to think about borrowing money or financing at this time, but little Jared had a good father, so he walked out of the room again and went directly to his father, Mr. Jared, and said stiffly, "I want two servers and a fiber-optic line. If you give it to me, I promise that I will not commit suicide in 10 years!"
Little Jared was the first person in history to rely on suicide to get things.
Of course, Mr. Gerrard was not short of money, but he knew a little about computers. He was very curious as to why his son needed three servers to play a stand-alone game. What's more, there was a fiber-optic line.
Therefore, Mr. Jared was keenly aware that something was wrong, but Mr. Jared did not expect that his son could create the world's most popular search website at this time. Instead, he thought that his son might have been deceived by bad people on the Internet, so he said, "Son, did you meet a scammer?"
However, in the next second, little Jared went directly into the room. He thought for a long time on the chair, and finally said to Huang Yiming, "Huang, I want two servers and a fiber-optic line!"
"What do you want to do with these? Are you trying to scare me to death?" Huang Yiming was shocked by Jared's request.
"My server can't operate the BBS now!" Little Jared typed in frustration.
"How is that possible? You bought an IBM server, how is it possible that it can't operate? "
Then, little Jared told Huang Yiming the situation, and Huang Yiming knew that the May Day search website had already reached 100,000 views a day.
"Damn it!" Huang Yiming was a little confused. Although he didn't know what this 100,000 level of traffic meant to the current Internet, he had a vague feeling that this was an opportunity that he absolutely couldn't miss.
"I'll pay for it!" Huang Yiming finally said, "Jared, come to New York. Let's open an Internet company in New York together. I'll pay for it, and you'll provide the technology and website. Let's both operate the Dark BBS and the May Day search website together!"
Silence
On the other side, little Jared was silent for a long time. For a person suffering from depression, leaving his safe home and going to an unknown big city was undoubtedly a huge choice.
"Okay, as long as our BBS can survive, I'm willing to go anywhere!" Little Jared finally said.
