Some tools I use are not very good at searching pending delete domains to my taste.

There is a big problem I have when using expireddomains.net

It does not allow me to narrow my search down to the following example:

start with => s
contains => io
ends with => e

I will end up just getting error message @Zandibot do you have any thoughts on this?

There is a minimum character count for those "Starts/Ends with and Contains". Sadly, there is no way around that that I know of.

Okay boss but do you know of any tools that allows one to do this? And is it pointless to perfrom search like that? Also I read your wonderful blog and saw your response to a comment that still lleft me puzzled.

I leave me puzzled sometimes with the things I say too Which comment on what post?

I don't know of any tools off hand that will allow that. The only thing I could suggest is narrow down your search as best as possible, export the list, and you could use the following steps. At least for ends with "e":

1. Export the list.
2. Find & Replace:

• e.com replaced with e.com######################################

1. Go to TextMechanic.com to Sort Text Lines
2. Sort the lines by length
3. All the domains ending with e should now be at the bottom.
4. Highlight, copy, and paste in new spreadsheet.
5. Find & Replace e.com###################################### back to e.com

You now have a list of all the domains ending with e. It's a complete pain in the ass, but it's a workaround off the top of my head to at least one of the issues.

This isn't exact for what you want, but this will narrow it down at least

Domain Name (un) wanted Chars
Usage: You can separate the characters by a whitespace, but you don't have to. Entering A B C 1 2 3 is the same as ABC123.
This is only for single characters or numbers! The order and amount doesn't matter.

If I enter s i o e, it will return domains that only contain those, then you could export that to a spreadsheet and sort and use searches for the rest?

Would that help? What extension?

ETA - posting at same time as @Zandibot see if you can combine our ideas to make it work : smile :

Thanks for your input, I can confirm you that you are indeed half beard and half machine

I just played around with these filters and I think I can change the minimum requirements for them. The starts with and ends with filter will work with 1 character and the contains filter will work with 2 characters.

Not sure what changed, but the speed is decent now. The last time I tested this it was not usable anymore with these low values. I will release it later this day.

*edit* after that your query is possible!

@kostaki you are the creator of expireddomains.net?

 

[kostaki]

yes.

And the change to the minimum number of characters required is now online.

 

[usernamex]

That is awesome!

Now @Dnbolt would you be so kind as to share why you needed to search - start with => s - contains => io - ends with => e ?
I'm super curious : smile :

 

[Dnbolt]

yes.

Fantastic your the boss. Atleast now I don't have to worry much about ranking dictionary keywords :D.
Thanks saved me huge time.

It just an example, basically helps find brandables without having to have a huge list of trendy keywords. I can focus on a smaller set of keywords which will always be found in the whole english words that exits in this world and the good part is I know what exactly to look for from the rankings.

 

[Ali]

yes.

Thank you!

Can anyone please recommend a good tool for searching for pending delete domains?

Sometimes free & cheap distributed tools just don't get the job done.

Aren't you a Php/SQL professional?

Download the pending delete list. Dump it into a SQL database, then use your own queries to sort through the domains.

Then you can execute searches like :
start with => s
contains => io
ends with => e

However lists produced by searches like that would be difficult to go through, maybe add "Starts with S and less than 9 characters"

As you know, the reason expired domains does not allow searches like this is because searches like that can drain the resources of databases. People hammering away looking for every domain that starts with "A" or "B" is not sustainable. However, when you set up your own database you can beat it up with requests, because it would just be you using it..

Lol that was actually my last resort, I couldn't be bothered to keep downloading and importing and infact the solution isn't just for me so just needed something universal. If I dind't ask I would have spent hours creating a solution when someone could have just tweeked a code and be 1000 times ahead of me.

DomainVP is right. Build your own tools if you are not satisfied with what currently exists.
It doesn't to be complicated depending on your goals.
What you are looking for is a regex (regular expression) or a simple LIKE clause in SQL could do the job.
The coding skills required are basic.
