Websites and domain age
Based on 214 sales tax permits from Jan 2026 to Aug 2026, with domain registration dates from public WHOIS/RDAP records for 113 of them. The latest two months are left out because websites are often found weeks after a filing. A domain much older than the filing usually means an existing operation formalizing, not a brand-new idea.
