Get a great domain name

About the Author

Marc Köhlbrugge is a serial maker and entrepreneur. He also enjoys writing about himself in the third person. He’s the founder of BetaList, a platform for discovering upcoming startups, and WIP, a community of makers building products in public.

Over the years, he’s registered hundreds of domain names and has developed a reputation in the startup community for his knack for finding great ones. His domain portfolio has included names like startup.com, betalist.com, wip.co, startup.jobs, bio.link, and roomai.com — many of which he acquired through the techniques described in this book. He also once sparked a rush on emoji domain names, leading to hundreds being sold within a matter of days.

When he’s not hunting for domain names, he’s building products, helping other founders ship faster, and sharing what he learns along the way.
