The idea

In 2000, when Startpath went in bankruptcy, Lawrence Ng aged 21 and his friend Fred Hsu, decided to use the knowledge achieved while working for Startpath and start their own business. Using their own savings, of about 10.000$ without any outside funding the two created in a small office Oversee.net. The big success of the company came along with the brand Domain Sponsor, followed by SnapNames and Moniker. The idea that Lawrence Ng was following was to create a service that would be a "one-stop shop" for domainers.
