Ask HN: Review my fast domain auction checking tool

Posted by webstartupper on Wednesday August 28, 2013 @10:32AM
from the ask-hn dept.

Hey guys,

I built domainsafrica.com for a fast and (hopefully) useful interface to search for domains that are on auction across various sites or have expired and can be back ordered.

Hope you guys like it. Let me know how I can make it better

Disclaimer/Warning: this webapp is deemed dangerous for anyone with a propensity to purchase domains they don't need :)

DomainsAfrica uses the DomCop API - so the data is the same. However the value add comes from the cleaner and simpler user interface. DomCop tends to be very complex for the casual domain searcher.

Thought I saw this earlier in the day. Deja vu?

Yeah. Had posted it earlier, but it just fell off the new page. Let's hope second time lucky :)
