About Us
What Domain Acquisition Means for Boston Businesses
A domain that someone else already owns can still be bought. Along the way we clear the trademark question, approach the owner privately, write up a valuation from comparable sales, hold the funds in escrow and plan the redirects for after the transfer. Unlike a brand-new registration, an existing name may already carry age, links and some traffic, which can help a Boston business start stronger.

We work in four stages: a trademark and prior-use check, a written valuation using comparable sales, private outreach and negotiation, and a registrar transfer protected by escrow. You approve each stage before the next begins. You see every offer and reply, while the seller never learns who is buying.

How Domain Acquisition Engagements Are Scoped in Boston
Before any offer goes out, you get a written price range based on recent sales of similar names, keyword demand, SEO history and how brandable the name is. The purchase money waits in an escrow account and is paid to the seller only once the domain is in your registrar account. Our own fee, either flat or a set percentage, is confirmed in writing at the outset.
Trademark Clearance and Legal Safety in Boston
We check every target name before contacting its owner. That means searching the USPTO register, looking for unregistered common-law use and reviewing any UDRP or ACPA disputes tied to the name, so you do not buy something that invites a cybersquatting claim. For Boston organizations with well-known names nearby, such as universities and hospitals, we point out any mark that could lead to a dispute. You receive the findings in a short written memo before money goes into escrow.
After the Acquisition: SEO, Redirects, and Brand Migration in Boston
When the domain lands in your account, we manage the switch: 301 redirects from the old address where needed, a change of address in Google Search Console, an internal-link review, schema updates and ranking checks for the first 90 days. The migration is included for clients who also use Authority Solutions® for SEO.

First come trademark and prior-use searches, which keep a purchase from turning into a legal problem down the line. We also look at registered marks, common-law use in Massachusetts, past WHOIS records, archived versions of the site and any spam or penalty history. A name has to clear every one of these before we put a value on it.
No. We contact the owner on your behalf without naming you. Sellers tend to raise the price when they think a well-funded buyer is behind the offer, so your identity is only shared at escrow, once terms are agreed.
Yes, as long as the buyer is not deliberately targeting someone else's trademark, which could fall under the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act or a UDRP complaint. A careful broker checks every name for trademark and prior-use issues before reaching out. We record each step so the chain of ownership is clear if the purchase is ever questioned.
The move follows a written URL map: 301 redirects pass link value to the new pages, canonical tags and internal links are updated, Search Console gets a change-of-address notice and rankings are monitored for 60 to 90 days. A short dip is common, and traffic usually recovers once the redirects settle.
Expect roughly 2 to 8 weeks in total. Clearance and valuation need 3 to 5 business days, talks with the seller usually run 1 to 3 weeks, and escrow and the registrar move add another 5 to 10 business days. Setting a firm top price at the start can speed things up if you have a launch date.
The domain itself, the registrant account and the transfer record. We move the name into your own registrar account instead of holding it for you, so you control renewals and hold legal ownership from the first day.
Several factors go into the range: recent sales of comparable names on the .com aftermarket; search demand for the words in the name; its length and how easily people can say and spell it; its age, SEO history, past traffic and backlink profile; and how well it suits your brand. The written range sets a floor, a target and a walk-away price before we make contact.
