Naymz was founded by Nolan Bayliss, Tony Czupryna, and Tom Drugan in January 2006.[2] The three founders previously worked at and met at the online travel company Orbitz in Chicago.[3] Naymz launched to the public in June, 2006.[4]
[edit] Importance
Naymz was one of the first Web 2.0 sites[vague] to provide utilities for Online Reputation Management (ORM) services. Other sites providing similar services include ClaimID, ReputationDefender, and LinkedIn.
In September 2007, Naymz added social networking to its platform and a proprietary Reputation Scoring system called RepScore.[5][6]
