A new domain generator script

Discussion in 'Domain Names' started by Danny, May 8, 2006.

    I am just finishing a script I have written and wondering if anyone might be interested in using it.

    Essentially what it does

    Takes a given domain name length
    generates a random string
    checks the availablility of the domain name with .com, .org and .net and returns it to the page with a link to register it.

    It isn't complete but works quite well especially for fishing out all the 4 letter domain names automatically.

    Let me know if you are interested and I will post a link to it when it is finished

    Daniel

    Just in addition

    You can choose to generate .com, .org or .net
    You can also include the length and exlcude whatever letters you want.

    Daniel

    Here it is. I will be making some changes such as real workd search and other search rules so essentially you will be able to completely customize the search

    Interesting. Remember to check spelling 'separate'. I'm the World's worst speller but I notice spelling errors.

    Not sure if it's working Ok but it came out with unexpected answers.

    I would suggest that you include .biz.

    Why does one need to register?

    I haven't found this facility elsewhere.

    Make sure that your site is submitted to Google.

    Good luck. I've bookmarked your site.

    Not sure what you mean by register. You dont have to register to use the site or register the domain if you dont want. Obviously I get a commission if you use my links to register the domain though, and I guess that is the least people can do for the code I have written for the tool. especially at $2.95.

    I am going to add

    - pre-pend domains (you can put in e- or my or whatever so it will put that at the start of all domains

    - Random string provider (So you put in furnewsd and it will make your random name from that input)

    - Database checking (I am going to locally collect the registered ones and ignore them in the searches so that only unregistered domains are returned

    - Standard domain search


    I couldnt find a tool like this anywhere else and wanted one that did what it does so just knocked it together over my lunch break.

    Oh and also it definately works 100% I cross referenced about 1000 results against namecheaps search and they were identical

    yeah it is just the amount of time it takes.

    I am awaiting godaddy comission aproval once they have approved the link will go to godaddy so then more people will sign up.

    I will also maybe include a "save these domains" and add a re-generate button so it will generate others you dont want and keep the others

    Cheers

    Just added to the script

    - Pre-pend domain names (if you choose a 4 letter domain you can pre-pend say e- to the domain name which will make it a 6 letter domain i.e. e-qwer.com)

    - Define your own string (You can now define the characters the name will be generated from so if you only want domain consisting of abcdesno you enter that and it will shuffle through them.


    Any other suggestions for the script?

    Have you seen the recent concerns posted here about people searching for available domains, and when coming to buy, finding that they have just been taken?
    Would there be any issues with this script keeping a record of people's searches?

    The stored searches will refresh every day.
    It does a fresh search for each domain it returns also

    At this point no-one. I have them dumping into a database at the moment but need to write some logic around the best way to update them if their registration has changed. I am going to try and link directly into a registar so people can buy it directly and remove it from the list.

    I am thinking of perhaps selling access to the bulk lists later but I dont know if anyone would pay for that, if not at least i can index the searches and increase performance.

    Just letting you know it now lets you register via godaddy. I will find an auto fill code for it later so that you dont have to re-enter it at godaddy

    I am also looking at adding a new feature to the code called "Search Mask"

    this will allow you to enter something like

    c,v,c,v

    which will only search for a combo of const, vowel, const, vowel
    i.e. AbAb.com

    any characters you dont fill will just be randomized. I will also be adding an "append" fetaure to it as well

    Just added search mask.

    This means your can tailor the results to match a certain patter.

    Say I wanted domains that only went const,vowel,const,const

    You enter c,v,c,c in the mask box and it will only generate that string.
    The rest of the functions also work with this :)

    Let me know what you think of the latest features
