Escrow.com releases Master of Domains awards with a change at the top

Andrew Miller catapults to #1.

Escrow.com has announced its annual Master of Domains list, which ranks the brokers with the highest total dollar volume of domain transactions handled at Escrow.com last year.

For the first time in eight years, Andrew Rosener of MediaOptions is not in the top spot. His firm fell to #4 in the rankings.

Andrew Miller of ATM Holdings finished first this year.

Here are the rankings:

1. ATM Holdings, Andrew Miller
2. Lumis Group, Keith Richter
3. Snagged, Rob Shutz
4. MediaOptions, Andrew Rosener
5. BrandForce, Louis Pickthall
6. DomainAgents, Ryan McKegney
7. Legal Brand Marketing, Braden Pollock (own portfolio)
8. Grit Brokerage, Brian Harbin
9. Clickology, Cory Greenberg
10. SafeNames, Luciana Samsudean

Andrew Rosener is a bit salty about the results. On X, he wrote, “Well, if we are being honest, it ended because you guys couldn’t do your job properly and so we needed to use other providers for escrow!”

Of course, the big caveat on the list has always been that it only counts transactions handled through Escrow.com; some brokerage firms use multiple platforms and attorneys to close deals, depending on the situation. So it has never been a full accounting of how much sales each brokerage firm handles in total. Andrew Miller commented on this in prior years.

Braden Pollock was on the Domain Name Wire Podcast late last year. He sold between $10 million and $15 million of domains last year, which gives a good reference point for the list (although I’m not sure if he handled all of the big deals on Escrow.com).
