Where is the best place to go to find expiring domains or domain auctions? I am looking for music or sports domains
I use to belong to a website called Domainer's Edge which had a web based program that crawled recently dropped and expiring domains. The cool thing about it was that you could quickly sort through different domain information like Alexa rank, page rank, link popularity and DMOZ listing. It also had a feature where you could enter a keyword and it would return all of the related domains that are about to drop and expiring soon. You could also automatically bid for it at any drop catcher site with the click of a link. It's kind of expensive, $100/m, but if you are into domaining as a full-time thing it's probably worth it. You can also check out PremiumDrops.com - It's free to sign up and has similar features to Domainer's Edge. Look through all the domain snatching services like SnapNames, Pool and Enom.
I build a site scraping good domains off of godaddy aftermarket. It looks for any domains with a pagerank > 0. It also lists alexa-ranking, when they were registered, how many backlinks, and a few other statistics. The domains are from all sorts of genres. Right now there are 4 domains containing "music": ryancalhounmusic.com musicbusinesschops.com riseandshinemusic.com roustaboutsmusic.com And 2 containing "sport": sports-betting-1x2.com sportsservants.org You can have a look at the site: VintageDomainNames.com
Thats the place where I have got the cheapest expired domains You should visit that if you have a controlled budget
