This stretch we talk with Kellie Peterson, head of domains at Automattic, which is the firm behind WordPress and offers domains through WordPress.com. Kellie was last on the podcast in January 2018, and a lot has happened since then at WordPress.com. On today’s show, Kellie explains how WordPress.com approaches domains, what top level domains do well, and how the firm experiments with domain search. Ahead of that, Kellie talks regarding some of her five-figure .xyz domain sales, and we wrap with a discussion regarding distributed workforces.
