Expired Domain Registrars
- NameJet - Of the three leading domain name drop catchers, NameJet typically features the highest quality domains. Daily lists generally contain close to 10,000 domains.
- SnapNames - Slightly lower prices than NameJet with much more garbage domains to sift through. However, increased chances of obtaining their few-and-far-between higher quality domains at low auction rates.
- Pool - The domain deletion dumpster. On rare occasion quality domains can be found by digging through their trash, but for the most part--not worth the time (Unless you own a metal detector and hunt regularly for hidden treasure).
Essential Domaining Tools & Utilities
- Spoofed PR Check - A critical mistake made by many domainers is the purchasing of domains based on their pagerank, only to find out later that the value is not authentic. This tool verifies the authenticity of a domain's pagerank.
- XinuReturns - All-in-one AJAX SEO research utility for finding domain backlinks and indexed pages among various search engines.
- Domain Tools - A must-have resource in every domainer's toolkit. The site for looking up individual domain histories and information.
Marketplaces: Buying and Selling Domain Names
- Sitepoint Marketplace - Very active marketplace for selling domain names and web sites.
- DNForum - The largest domaining forums. If you're going here to buy and sell your domain names, plan on shelling out some cash for a membership that isn't quite worth it.
