Scanning a list of dropped domains of certain character lengths on expireddomains.net is probably just as fast, is very up-to-date and even allows me to list words in various languages (like finnish!) if I prefer.

I am not connected with expireddomains.net, but I am addicted to it!


Most of the domains I looked at are already re-purchased or were not actually expired in the first place. I bet this site is really just setup to drive traffic to the ads on it.


I'll refrain from posting them here and from getting them myself because I don't want to encourage domain squatting, but there are some really good ones here. Maybe a few have been taken, but if you browse around enough I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find something available and suitable for your yet-to-be-named or in-need-of-alias product...


Some of the ones it's suggesting look less than "100% pronounceable" to me. like... dyzyc.com or mmdyw.com?


So people coming here know: this is a 3x repost, this time I guess with some changes (?). The last discussion can be found here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4667584


This is a great tool. However, of the two domains I've clicked on to buy so far, both have been purchased already by a new party since their expiration. It would be great if this list were filtered by what's still available.


Awesome!! Feature suggestion: keyword search on top of it. e.g. I can search "call" to get all the domains that has "call" in them in order of pronounceability.


Just one comment - why GoDaddy? As everyone knows, there's a wide variety of reasons not to go with GoDaddy.


NameCheap is also offered as a registration option, if you prefer.


Very clever! How does this define "pronounceability"?


These are awesome!

All of them look like potential startup names, hehe.


what algorithm did you use for this?


Love this!
