Every
year since 2017, Escrow.com has been
honoring the world's top domain brokers through
their Master
of Domains program. The annual awards
go to the 10 highest-grossing domain name
brokers based on the value of deals they
closed on the Escrow.com platform in the previous
year. For seven of those years in a row the
top spot has gone to MediaOptions.com
Founder Andrew
Rosener but this time out the title
went to another Andrew - ATM
Holdings Founder Andrew
Miller. Miller,
who was profiled in an April 2024 DNJournal Cover
Story, is a true industry pioneer who
has been involved in many of the biggest domain
sales of all-time. The illustrious list includes Chat.com,
Rocket.com, Gold.com, Universal.com,
Beer.com, Diamond.com, Shop.com
and CreditCards.com, to name just a few
that he pushed across the finish line over the
past 25 years. 2025
was a huge year for the domain aftermarket in
general with Escrow.com alone facilitating over $395
million in transactions. The AI boom,
of course, has played a big role in that surge.
Escrow.com noted, ".AI domains nearly tripled
in sales from $9.4 million to $27.1 million in a
single year, now generating more transaction
volume than .io, .co, .co.uk and
every other alternative extension combined. And in
April 2025, AI.com
sold for $70 million in the
largest domain sale ever recorded." With
buyers out in droves and big money at stake,
trusted brokers with long tracks of success have
never been in greater demand. The two Andrews
(Rosener had another great year as well) and their
fellow Top
Ten honorees all rose to the occasion. |
