Would you tell us a few words about yourself? How long have you been working in the domain and web hosting industry?
I have been with Dotster in the domain and web hosting industry since it was privatized in 2000. During that time, I’ve been fortunate enough to have been part of several industry firsts, including the first namespin algorithm, auto renewals, the first shopping cart and the first expired domain auctions.
Under my tenure at Dotster, the company has thrived and has grown to become one of the largest registrars in the world. Dotster has helped almost one million businesses and individuals establish a web presence, build sites and drive traffic. We have stayed focused on a direct-to-consumer business model and are now servicing small and medium sized businesses as well.
