StilettoMeUp.xyz – GoDaddy customer (United States)
In this week’s #WebsiteWednesday we’re taking another check in on one of our favorite .xyz users, Egreis Gjergjani, and her site StilettoMeUp.xyz. Egreis was one of the first adopters of .xyz all the way back in 2014, and 4 years later StilettoMeUp.xyz is strutting along better than ever.
Egreis is a successful fashion entrepreneur who began StilettoMeUp.xyz as she was preparing for a major life change, her first child. She launched her site to share her story of how she added a growing family into her already impressive scope of focus, and she still keeps her site up to date with advice on balancing work and home life, fashion and style tips, behind the scenes looks at her product events and launches, and more.
Speaking of product launches, Egreis just launched a new clothing line, by egreis, last week. This new venture sees her branching out from her existing children’s clothing line, Itty Bitty Toes, to create clothing for women of all sizes. Egreis gave a look behind the curtain at the hard work and challenges she faced in the buildup to the launch on her blog, which is an inspiring read for any entrepreneur.
In 4 years Egreis’ life has changed many times over, but her .xyz domain has been with her through it all. Her independent and driven spirit combined with her talent and dedication make her a perfect spokesperson for #GenXYZ. While we may not know what Egries has in store next on her journey, we know that she will conquer it with grace and glamour, just as she’s been doing since she started StilettoMeUp.xyz.

Ottia.xyz – eNom customer (United States)
Today’s new technology is completely changing the landscape for many industries, and few have more practical applications than 3D printing. This week’s #WebsiteWednesday, Ottia.xyz, is taking 3D printing technology to new heights and expanding the ways manufacturers can use it.
The Ottia.xyz 3D printing machine stands out from its competition because it isn’t just a 3D printer but rather, as Ottia puts it, “a factory in a box.” Their machine functions as all the tools a manufacturer may need: a 3D printer capable of printing complex designs, a mill to make precise carvings in wood and plastics, a laser engraver for etching and detailing, a paste funnel for unique designs, and a pen for intricate designs that require pens smaller than 0.5in wide, all situated over top of a conveyor belt which allows you to focus on other tasks while Ottia handles the manufacturing work itself.
That’s not all, though, as the Ottia machine’s open source hardware and software allow anyone to customize it to add the feature that will best serve their needs. This forward thinking approach allows Ottia’s machine to start solving problems for your company right away, while giving you peace of mind in knowing that the machine is ready to grow with your needs as your business grows itself.
Though the machine is still a prototype idea in search of support and not yet available on the market, Ottia.xyz has been featured at some of the biggest showcases in the country, including CES, SXSW, and PBS’ Ideastream. The buzz they created at these shows led to them also being featured in an article by Cleveland.com, yet another illustration of the bright future Ottia and its creators have ahead.
It's always great seeing a member of #GenXYZ out in the wild. Check out https://t.co/dQbKczcJ21, The Maker Machine, at #SXSW! pic.twitter.com/ILaV6pUhcr

This week we’re excited to announce partnerships with two organizations whose missions XYZ is proud to support: Urban TXT and Generation Girl. Together with these organizations, we are helping teens and young people make the most of their internet experience and set themselves up for success in the digital world.
Urban TXT is a Los Angeles based youth development program that teaches coding to young men of color who come from low income communities, greatly assisting them in going on to attend college and pursue careers in computer science.
You may remember Urban TXT from their hackathon Hustle N’ Code, which XYZ supported 2 years ago. Since then, Urban TXT has grown to now boast over 1,500 program participants per year, along with a spiffy new hackerspace in which those students can learn, complete with computer monitors donated by XYZ. We will be supporting the Hustle N’ Code hackathon again this year (stay tuned to our social media to follow along) and we look forward to helping them build out their new hackerspace into a bed of innovation and education for young men from south LA to follow their dreams of learning to code.
Generation Girl is XYZ’s newest partner, and one that matches the international reach of .xyz. Generation Girl is a non-profit in Indonesia that aims to inspire young girls to become leaders in the traditionally male-dominated STEM fields.
Through our partnership with Generation Girl, we will support their upcoming Winter Club program and 2019 Summer Club program, and will provide .xyz domains for the young girls enrolled so they can develop their newfound interests and share their innovative ideas with the world. Keep an eye on our social media, because you may see us highlighting sites the girls in Generation Girl’s program have made!
The mission of .xyz has always been, and always will be, to support the next generation of creators, inventors, artists, dreamers, and leaders across the globe. We’re proud to announce these partnerships, introduce you to these organizations, and share in their mission to advance #GenXYZ’s opportunities now and in the future.
Backhouse.xyz – eNom customer (Canada)
We never forget an especially tasty meal. Whether it’s that spectacular dinner you had on vacation or a simple but unforgettable meal from your favorite spot around the corner, great food experiences are ones that we cherish and look to have as often as we can.
This week’s #WebsiteWednesday, Backhouse.xyz, provides a special dining experience, and their commitment to sustainability makes it all taste even better.
Just off the beaten path in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Canada is where Backhouse, one of the most acclaimed restaurants anywhere, resides. The ambience of Backhouse creates a welcoming feeling that you are soon to embark on a culinary journey, guided by their inventive menu that features truly farm-to-table ingredients.
Backhouse has a farmer on staff that grows vegetables and herbs for each dish, uses ethically raised and locally sourced meats, and even invites guests to move between the dining room and kitchen to roast marshmallows at the end of their meal.
Backhouse may be a small town treat, but their dishes and unique atmosphere have garnered praise from critics and travelers worldwide. Backhouse has been recognized by Conde Nast Traveler, Where Magazine, Travel Life Magazine, Boston.com, Toronto Life, the National Post, and more, and the readers of Air Canada voted Backhouse the Air Canada enRoute People’s Choice Award Winner.
This attention hasn’t gone to the heads of the Backhouse team, though, as they remain committed to their craft while also looking out for their community in ways like featuring local artists’ work from the Canadian Artists Program in their restaurant.
Backhouse is an inspiring example of the successes that can be attained through hard work, commitment to your values, and an innovative spirit. On their Backhouse.xyz site, they allow that spirit to shine through, and serve as an example that any up and coming restaurant should be eager to follow.

It’s been over 2 years since Milk.xyz was featured in our #WebsiteWednesday series, but they’ve been up to a lot of exciting things since then. We’ve been keeping an eye on them and all the exciting avenues they’ve excelled in, and we thought it was time for our #GenXYZ readers to get an up to date on Milk.xyz as well. So without further ado, we present the first #WebsiteWednesday check in on Milk.xyz.

Fresh off wrapping their hit show on Viceland, the dynamic duo have brought their superb podcast and loyal fanbase with them to their new home at Milk.xyz’s Milk studios, where they crack jokes about hip hop, celebrities, current events, and more alongside A-list starts like Jonah Hill. As the Bodega Boys would say, Milk.xyz’s brand is strong.
Milk.xyz have taken their brand to stellar heights and have staked their place in the culture through hustle and creativity. Throughout Milk.xyz’s rise, their .xyz domain has played an integral role in helping them stand out from the crowd, just as your .xyz domain can help you amplify your voice and express your individuality online.
