Ha. I've been working on a project [1] for wayy too long, but the backend utilizes things like this, negative strings/words like many first & last names, word identification, basic ML, a decent pronounceability algorithm to filter junk and score what's left, etc.

The back end.... is not the prettiest, but it works. Every day 's deleted domains are refined then you can search through our list. The idea is to save people a wholeee bunch of time and ideally find some hidden gems.

Thanks for sharing op. bookmarked.

[1] https://decentdrops.com - Please be kind! First time i've mentioned it.. I'm ready. I procrastinate too much. Haven't done a Show HN thread, want to tweak/touch up things a bit more first.

This is cool, great work. You should add some SEO metrics (perhaps as a paid upgrade) like Moz Domain Authority, or SEMrush traffic or # of keywords the domain ranks for. Something to determine if the domain has any existing SEO value on top of being a good sounding domain.

If a domain drops long enough to be hand registered it's probably safe to assume it has no significant SEO value.

Would agree on that. I've ran a DB of over half a billion domains from past and present, 95% of them have no "SEO value" according to the metric tools. Anything gTLD getting dropped is mostly getting ran through an auction and/or dropcatch process which means anything available an hour after expiration is either a ccTLD that others didn't have in their DB, or for some or reason wasn't attractive to other prospectors using zone files.

This is amazing, I found a great domain for one of my projects when checking it out. Thank you for building and sharing it!

This is really amazing. Just found short pronounceable domain name for my side project. Thank you for building this.

> genericcorporation.com

That domain is too good to not be snapped up.

Very cool, love the idea. One could make a fun game out of imagining and prototyping projects that could exist behind these domains.

> diseaseautomation.com

I hope this remains on the list indefinitely.

Thank you for this, I use (well-known registrar tool with similar/same functionality), you've incorporated the exact tasks I perform (Insights) and have surpassed that registrar's tooling in usability. Kudos.

Oh could you also put a link to the web archive if there used to be a page there?

Partly for fun and partly so you know if it was bad shit on it before

I was thinking the same thing, but realized it's already there under the insights column!

This list was helpful when searching for a unique domain names or for social media handles. It was inspired by the original gist by @marcanuy [1] and by an article from LeanDomainSearch [2].

Unfortunately both lists were not as easy to search and sort so I converted it to a tsv on gist.

Thanks! In fact, I can't seem to find any list at all in your [2]. They say "Without further ado, here are the final results", but I don't see any links.

Somewhat unrelated but TIL: GitHub gists auto formats tsv (and I presume csv) files. This is really neat!

Indeed, it looks like CSV is also made pretty: https://gist.github.com/search?l=CSV&q=csv

I'm trying to chain as many of these as I can together. Welcome to my free online webmedia worldnet blog group bookshop store inc

If you loosen things up you can get fun results.

In case anyone is wondering the top 100 prefix/suffix combos (2294 domains) are all registered.

Like TheMe.com? Nevermind, that's theme.com.

TheGo.com, TheIn.com, TheIt.com don't make that much sense, but since they're short enough, they've been scooped up, because domain investing isn't only about selling domains to those building sites, it's also about selling to other domain investors.

They don't make much sense, but they might make good names for startups. At least relative to those who choose regular words that are hard to Google.

Note to others before clicking: this list may hang your browser, it did mine (Chrome & Brave, Android; Lightning handled it fine tho I have everything turned off in that).

I used Lightning (https://f-droid.org/en/packages/acr.browser.lightning/) to open it and worked fine for me out of the box (I don't think I set any special settings for performance).

Firefox on a laptop is also fine of course, but that's a laptop.

Firefox on android handled it without issue for me.

I didn’t compare lists, but namemesh.com does a fair job of making suggestions based on your original search or keywords.

I wonder if there is a list of subdomains too. "jira." and "wiki." must be popular..

+24 is missing

Interesting catch, since moving to Germany I noticed some "something24"s (though only one comes to mind now) so I would indeed expect that to show up here, even if lowly ranked.

It looks like there are either no numeric pre/suffixes at all (that sounds unlikely) or they are not included? Looking through the raw I see nothing matching /[0-9]\+?$/

I wonder who started the whole 24 thing. I know Deutsche Bank used to use it, googling "db24" gives them as the top result. Ah even www.db24.de redirects to their site.

Why is .com so far down the list?

I dont think these are tlds, so this is counting something like broadcom.com as +com.

Because you're thinking TLD, not suffix

Both dotcom+ and +dotcom are there. getadotcom.com and dotcombuzz.com

Where does porn starts?

Try ctrl+f?

485 porn prefix

684 porn suffix

Thanks I think I will buy all of these! https://leandomainsearch.com/search/?q=fuck
