Similarly, https://skiplagged.com surfaces potentially cheaper multi-leg flights that have a layover in your destination city.

For example if you are wanting to travel from A->B, a flight that goes A->B->C may be cheaper than A->B if A->C is a competitive route.

Congrats. I remember watching Flexport get pitched to PG and Sam Altman during open 'Office Hours' at Startup School in 2013.

Awesome. Curious, what are you using to scrape sources, and for social counts?

Also if someone enters a path other than the index nothing catches the 404. At the least you should have a redirect. :)

Cool project. We do something very similar with an internally made lander for our domain portfolio, and it works well. Lots of serious buyers contact via e-mail listed on whois too.

One thing very useful is to have analytics, perhaps you could add a feature for users to input a Google Analytics tag (UA-000000).

Side note: for anyone who actually wants to sell/buy a domain in a private transaction, I highly recommend Escrow.com as an escrow service.

http://offpeak.io the project my team has been working on aims to solve this exact problem. We help travelers avoid peak season, and peak dates that are often associated with large business conferences.
