How to Find Non-Existent Domain Names

How to Find Non-Existent Domain Names thumbnail
You can search for available domain names online.

A domain name is the URL address for a website. It's important to choose a domain name that represents your website, product or service well and is easy for visitors to remember. This may require thought and time using domain search services online. These services can report domain names that are not currently in use or have just expired. When you find a non-existent domain name through a search, you are free to register it and use it for your own website.

Instructions

    • 1

      Go to a domain search website such as the expired domains section of Network Solutions, JustDropped.com or DomainsBot (see References).

    • 2

      Review the list of daily deleted domains if this is available on the website. These are domains that have completely expired and are deleted from their registrar, making them non-existent.

    • 3

      Type the domain name or keywords that you would like to register into the search text box on the webpage and press the "Enter" button on your keyboard.

    • 4

      Review the report of non-existent domain names based on your search. These names are available for you to register or have expired and may be bid on.

Tips & Warnings

  • Just because a domain has expired does not mean you will be able to buy it. You can place a bid on the domain, but the original owner has a period of time to reclaim it. You may also be outbid by another buyer.
