Lands at Rook Media — Joe Higgins

Former Oversee.net employee finds fresh home at Rook Media.

Longtime Domain Sponsor account manager Joe Higgins may have left his employer of the last 6 1/2 years recently, but he didn’t leave the domain name industry.

Higgins has joined fresh domain name parking firm Rook Media.

Rook Media was formed by former Name Drive senior managers who left following the latter was sold. It was in a private beta with sizable domainers since February and opened up to the masses in June.

The firm handles all types of domain names but its founders have a lot of experience in multi-lingual domain name monetization.

Higgins will help expand Rook’s monetization offerings while also helping domainers with brokerage and alt-
monetization needs. He will maintain an office in Los Angeles.
