NameUpgrade helps founders and companies do one thing well: get the right domain name, even when someone else already owns it.
Our team are full-time domain investors. Day to day, that means researching domain owners, reading WHOIS records and their history, valuing names against real sales, and negotiating with individuals, investors and companies around the world. It's the same work an acquisition needs, done every day.
How we work
- Both sides of the table: we buy names from private owners and sell names to companies, so we know what each side needs to say yes.
- Research first: every approach starts with who the owner really is and what they're likely to want.
- Discretion: your company stays out of the negotiation unless you decide otherwise. We keep a low profile ourselves, too.
- Senior, hands-on service: one experienced team member handles your request from the first email to the transfer.
