Finding the right domain is like finding a puzzle piece

In the last few weeks, I've spent hours searching for good domain names. A good domain name is only a small step on the way to success - but one of the first decisions and you do not want to make a mistake here! No way!

Domain search is a heavy job

I have tried and tested a lot of tools, providers and websites - and wasted a lot of time. Some
sites only list free domain names, others offer backorder services for expired domains (that are pending delete and will be released shortly) and other sites offer existing domains for sale or auction. I did not count the pages, but it could have been between 20-25 or more, I visited and watched over weeks! I thought there must be something better and went on the search on the Internet!

Domain name Seach Engine

What I was looking for was a kind of domain name search engine that integrates all providers and websites offering free, for sale or pending delete domain names. It was also important for me to get automatic alerts for certain search terms or phrases. It took some time to get through the lists of the usual providers and hosters, until I found this fantastic site:

Domain Name Search Engine ExpiredDomains.net
(It´s a free tool and no, I am not an affiliate there!)

Next Level Domain Search

ExpiredDomains(dot)net Domain Search Engine is the most powerful and complete service for expired, dropped or registered domains I have ever seen. There are hundreds of reasons, maybe the most important are:

  • Lists expired Domains, pending delete and free to register or backorder for 390 TLDs!
  • Lists dropped Domains, now free for registration, with all relevant data (Seo, Backlinks, Age, Archive.org, and much more) also for 390 TLDs
  • Lists available Domains of the leading markets (Sedo, Flippa, GoDaddy, Dynadot, Huntingmoon, Namesilo, Namepal, Namejet and more...)
  • While I wrote this post 289,149,899 domains (!!!) were monitored by ExpiredDomains(dot)net
  • There are thousands of filters options, to customize your search by phrase, name, Age and more than a hundred of relevant factors
  • There is a watch list for domains you want to observe or remember
  • Every search can be turned into a Saved Search, alerting you if new domain names are available
  • I am sure I did not explore all the functionalities, but hope to have mentioned just the best here

And where is the hook now? OK, you have to register once with your email-adress for full functionality. But what can I say, this service is absolutely free! You can test the site without registration, but with limited search results only.

I use this tool every day, and you?

It took me some time to discover and use all the possibilities ExpiredDomains(dot)net offers. But this tool has become my daily companion. I get an daily update on my domain searches by email and I check every day if there is a new domain name free or available for me. Whenever I have new domain ideas or projects, I use this tool.

If you are in the process of domain search, once or permanently, I recommend to use it. It is very complex, but it provides so many benefits and added value, that a short training is worthwhile...

I am looking forward to your questions, experiences and suggestions!
Please give me feedback, too, if I formulated something wrong.

Have a nice day and much fun trying it out!
Andre

Andre, I would like to ask a question. Why do I have to use much time in searching for domains using other other tools rather what is provided by WA, the Jaaxy?

When I like to register a domain I just type it here and it tells if it's available or not.

Good question Jimmy!
Domain names provided by Jaxxy or WA are "only" free domain names. Of course, you can just get there and build your business on one of these free domains.
But there are millions of other domains that you can not find on jaxxy or WA, because they are already registered, for sale, or registered and will soon be deleted and are free for registration again.
These domains can offer a significant added value, eg .because they are very short, brandable or memorable, or have natural traffic, traffic through an earlier usage, a good domain authority which give SEO advantages, and, and, and... Hope you see the possible advantages - and sometimes it is worth paying a few dollars or waiting for the right domain.

Oh! I see. I hope it's not so expensive.

Well, it depends on the domain...

Sometimes you can register it for regular registration price, in some cases you have to pay a little registration fee getting a domain backordered by special serviceproviders. And often the wanted purchase price has to be paid or the highest bid at an auction.

I like and use domains with natural serarch traffic or traffic through an earlier usage most, because as soon as the page is put on it usually gets traffic immediately...

I don't believe that's correct. I purchased my domain name through WA...through Site Rubix. They aren't just free...hosting them can be free.

Hi Debbie,

maybe we have a misunderstanding about the word "free". With "free" domains with I mean domains that are "free to register" - and not registered bei anybody else. I do not mean they are "cost free". Siterubix offers these "free to register" domains, perfect if you do not need or want more.
But there are millions of more/other domains, that are already registered and can be purchased at a higher orice, or will drop "free to register" in a few days/weeks. I didn´t find any of those "extra" domains at siterubix.

A misunderstanding, my bad english, or am I wrong?

Thanks for the clarification.

Domains for sale sometimes carry with them anything bad or good images and stories the prior owner has.

Maybe I can think of my own domain which is fresh and new without any history rather it will create its own history as I develop it.

Hi Jimmy, yes this can happen. There are tools and utility programs, to separate the wheat from the chaff, to purchase only the good ones.

A domain with a positive history, age and traffic can be a great advantage. And the domains I would like to have (short, aged, with natural traffic, memorable,...), often are not free to register. So this is an option for me, to get quality domains.

I take this advantage, whenever I can - and I never had a bad experience so far! It's your choice, I've made mine.

You are right. Thank you.

Sounds like a fantastic tool, Andre. I will definitely have a closer look at that for my next domain name. Surely great if you need to find domain names on a regular basis.

Thank you Beate! If you have questions, let me know.

Thanks for sharing
The temptation to jump into building a free website is so exciting that you can overlook the importance of a quality domain name

I agree! A good and unique domain name is so important for a successful business. A quality domain will not only protect your brand and make your site look more professional, it also improves search engine ranking, generates traffic, trust and credibility.
Not to forget: It is a virtual asset which tends to increase in value over time...
