In November, 2011 he announced that his company, MostWantedDomains.com, brokered the sale of "meet.me" for $450,000; he believes that this represents an all time sales record for the [[.me]] domain space. The domain, among with others like it such as date.me, love.me, and marry.me, were jointly purchased by his company, [[Worldwide Media]] Inc., and prominent [[domainer]]s [[Rick Schwartz]], and [[Ammar Kubba]]. They purchased the domain for $5,890 at a silent auction at a prior [[T.R.A.F.F.I.C.]] conference. He lauded the fact that he had effectively raised the prices of other, premium .me domains, and pointed to continuing opportunity for domainers and developers in the post-[[.com]] era.<ref>[http://www.thedomains.com/2011/11/10/mostwanteddomains-com-brokers-the-sale-of-meet-me-for-a-world-record-price-of-450000/ MostWantedDomains.com Brokers the sale of Meet Me, TheDomains.com]</ref>
