Intelligent alt domain suggestions are πŸ”‘. Need tools to check social handle availability too. SEO insights & domain rep history would be clutch for picking the best option. Seamless secure checkout is a must. Someone build this! πŸ™

@danieljosephbennett Absolutely. We are in it ;). Do you usually buy registered domains for sale?

When searching for a domain, many miss features like comprehensive availability across multiple extensions, intelligent alternative suggestions, and a way to check social media handle availability. SEO insights, historical data on the domain's reputation, and a seamless checkout or transfer process are also often lacking, making it harder to choose and secure the best domain efficiently.

@esadik totally. And what SEO insights you would like to see? and which kind of historical data?
SADIK KASIMOGLU
@ivarFor I'd like to see details that can help predict how well the domain could perform in search rankings. Some key insights could include: Keyword strength: Does the domain contain popular keywords that could help it rank better on search engines? Competition level: Information on how competitive the associated keywords are and whether the domain will face significant competition. Future projections: Predictions on how the domain might perform based on historical data from similar domains. As for historical data, it would be useful to have: Previous registrations: If the domain was registered before, knowing its past usage could reveal if it was associated with any negative content or penalties. Previous rankings: Insights into the domain's past performance in search engine rankings, if available. Existing backlinks: Are there any strong or potentially harmful backlinks attached to the domain that could impact its future SEO? These insights would be super helpful in making a more informed decision when selecting a domain, both for SEO performance and ensuring there's no negative history associated with it. smas

Price comparison, domain usage history, SEO status
Mike Ivars
@bensongao price comparison it is clear, but with the usage history and SEO status.., do you refer for registered domains? If so, is it for to buying it from its current owner instead of the registering it? And what data you would like see: In the case of "usage history"? the who changes of owners/registrar or the previous pages that host? And in the SEO status I guess that: DA and backlinks mainly.. it is?

Not available and high price
Mike Ivars
@mervin_hicks ok, but availability is in the most of search engines or registrars, no? The high prices could be solved with a price comparative of the searched domain in different registrars when you get the results. πŸ‘πŸ»

@ivarsmas You are right .

I'd love to see intelligent suggestions for alternative domains if my preferred one is taken. Like showing me other TLDs that are available, keywords I could add, or tweaks to make it unique but memorable. A tool that checks social media handle availability at the same time would be clutch too. Anything to streamline the process!
Mike Ivars
@harrisi253 yeah it would be great, addtional suggestions to the initial search in other tLD and with variations. And yes, the same said @sebastiancoleashford too.
Sebastian Cole Ashford
Definitely would love to see integrated social media handle checking when searching for a domain. And having SEO insights right there too would be super helpful for finding a strong domain name. Seems like a lot of registrars are still lacking those key features.
Mike Ivars
@sebastiancoleashford to check de social media handle is interesting. And with the "SEO insights".. do you refer for registered domains that are for sale, right?
Gladys Maywalt
domain usage history, SEO status most

@gladys_maywalt Yes, agree! Do you usually buy registered domains for sale?
