Today marks a major milestone for me and something I have wanted to achieve for over a decade. I am incredibly excited to officially announce the launch of Winterline (winterline.com) , a new asset management company founded by myself and my long-time friend and business partner, Sean Markey.
Between the two of us, we have spent decades in the trenches of the digital economy.You all have been here a while so you know I have been in the domain space for nearly 20 years. Sean has spent the last decade plus working with major SEO firms and his private SEO group to master the art of high-level asset acquisition.
What is Winterline?
While Winterline is officially a brokerage, I like to think we are much more expansive than that. We specialize in the high-impact assets, both on and off-market, that actually drive modern business growth. We help individuals and companies navigate the buying and selling of:
- Premium Domains: The foundation of your business and marketing.
- Content & Traffic: Websites, SEO-focused properties, and high-value backlinks.
- Audience Platforms: Newsletters and established social media accounts.
- Modern Tech: Custom GPTs and emerging digital tools.
A significant portion of our work is handled with strict confidentiality. Whether it is a private acquisition or a strategic divestment, we understand the need for discretion at the highest levels.
Sean will be leveraging his deep industry relationships to lead our SEO and digital asset division. I will be focused on scaling our domain brokerage and building our capital investment arm. Our investment strategy is broad, ranging from individual premium domains to large-scale corporate investments.
Again, this is something I’ve always wanted to do. I’ve worked for and with other brokers for years. I’ve done almost a million in private deals on my own just helping friends. Time to make it official and expand my work. The beauty of modern tech is I can be anywhere at any time and still be available at any time. Starlink will keep me closing deals in the mountains. I can be in Europe, Hawaii, or Urbana, living a great life and helping companies acquire some of the best assets on earth. While I’m traveling it.

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. We Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.* All names chosen by us. (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything we say is based on our own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or our opinion is correct. We hand choose the names but we are paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good.
Congratulations and good luck! And a nice-looking website.
