A private brokerage for premium domain names, est. 2010.
Trust Domain Names brokers the quiet side of the domain trade. We acquire, sell, hold and watch premium names for founders, brands and investors in more than thirty countries — and we do it without noise.
§ The firm
Trust Domain Names Inc. is a private brokerage built around one asset class: names. Since 2010 we have represented buyers and sellers of premium domains across more than thirty countries — founders naming their companies, investors holding portfolios, and brands defending what is theirs.
We are deliberately small and deliberately quiet. Most of our work never becomes public: the name simply changes hands, the record updates, and both sides move on. That discretion is the product.

§ Services
Six services, one asset class. Everything we do starts and ends with names.
BROKERAGE
You set the terms; we sit in the middle. We represent either side of a transaction, approach counterparties discreetly, and negotiate to close without exposing your identity or your budget.
TRADING
Buy-side and sell-side execution on the secondary market. We price against comparable sales and live market data, then move quickly when the number is right.
ACQUISITION
The name you want is taken. Good — that is our starting point. We research the owner, open the conversation, and secure the name at the best defensible price.
CONSIGNMENT
Your portfolio, presented to qualified buyers. We handle valuation, listing, marketing and negotiation — and you approve every term before anything moves.
CUSTODY
Registration, DNS, renewals and security under one roof. Registrar locks, two-factor controls and a renewal calendar that never lets a name lapse.
MONITORING
Around-the-clock watch on status, expiry and ownership changes — yours and the market's. When a name moves, you hear it from us first.
§ Process
Every engagement follows the same four movements, whether the name is worth four figures or seven.
1.
Write to us with the name you want or the names you hold. Every enquiry is confidential from the first line.
2.
We price the asset against comparable sales, search demand and market data, and tell you plainly what it is worth.
3.
We handle the approach, the terms and the counterparty. You see progress; the market sees nothing.
4.
Funds and name move simultaneously through licensed escrow. Nothing changes hands until everything is verified.
§ Principles
No public listings unless you ask for them. Most of our deals leave no trace but a changed record.
Registrars, brokers, buyers and sellers across thirty-plus countries, reachable in every time zone.
Every recommendation is backed by comparable sales and market analytics, never by a hunch.
Escrow-protected funds, registrar locks and strict confidentiality agreements on every engagement.
§ Contact
One email is enough. Tell us what you are looking for — or what you are holding — and we will take it from there.
We reply within one business day, usually faster.
