How to optimize Estibot tool to find winners? Any Pro-users?


So i tried the $1/per day subscription yesterday on Estibot because i wanted to use 2 of it's function after hearing they could help find winners.

1) "Long tail tool"
2) "Available Domains!"

and... 3 more hours and my 24 hours trial period is up. I still haven't quite figure out how these 2 function works.

I typed in 'Loan' in the "long tail tool" and estibot gives me 10,000 results. It's quite a huge amount but all of them are not worth regging, imo. What makes it worst is the 'check' function on the first column of the displayed result. I have to click on it to see whether it's taken or not. I only managed go thru half of the list and that took me a whole afternoon. (Registered nothing in the end)
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/domain-name-discussion/475094-how-optimize-estibot-tool-find-winners.html

Also, i couldn't find any explaination on how estibot get their results by using my typed-in keyword. Why would estibot display some TAKEN domain names and not all of them. I know this because i have some domain with the keyword infront and it's not displayed on the result list.

That makes me wonder whether will they also fail to display available potential winner domain names?

Or is estibot not the correct tool when it comes to finding domains names (not talking about appraisal here) and that's the reason why i couldn't find any threads discussing about this?

Would appreciate if any estibot pro-users or those who has been through my situation to give advice!

Thanks!

p.s. Not saying estibot is a badtool because i may be the only one who has problem using it.

There are tons of estibot related threads, use the search box at the top right of the page for more.

Here's one that may answer some of your questions, if not I'm sure Josh will.

Personally, I would use your head and think like a human instead of relying on automated programmes to suggest if a name is good or not.

good luck
