Hi, I'm Philipp 👋 cofounder over at adlerlagune.com You know those first few moments of absolute bliss when you come up with a new project idea. One of the first things you always want to do is secure an awesome domain name. You find one eventually and hit buy. You start hacking on the project, but eventually, you stop working on it. But what about that domain name? It just sits around, parked, in your cloudflare/godaddy/porkbun/... registrar as a reminder of your failure. I wanna change that with https://undeaddomains.com. I want builders to be proud of their failures, and be able to find new owners for their unused domains. Let me show you how we're changing the status quo: 💀 Domain parking sites and forms convert notoriously bad ✅ Our link in bio profiles don't, it's a public page that you're able to customize and add your socials, people are going to contact you via your preferred contact method 💀 Registrars take a cut on each sale ✅ we don't, and won't. We plan to monetize via paid plans that are going to offer additional premium features like AI/semantic search and improved analytics (early adopters will get these features for free) 💀 Discovering new domains sucks ✅ in addition to a streamlined full text search we will soon offer semantic search (feature is ready, and will be unlocked after more people signed up) leaderboards on a dataset of domains submitted by builders, for builders If you sign up early: 1️⃣ reserve your unique username/handle 2️⃣ get early adopter benefits 3️⃣ get paid plan features for free (you get to keep them) Producthunt feedback is invaluable and we ship rapidly. So, please tell me what you like and more importantly don't like about it. If you find a bug or weird behavior, please reach out to receive an exclusive bug hunter badge as a customization option.

@philipp_parzer This is a brilliant way to turn unused domains into opportunities! Undead Domains' customizable link-in-bio profiles and upcoming AI features are game-changers. It's great to see a solution that turns setbacks into new beginnings for entrepreneurs. What's been the most surprising feedback from early adopters, and how has it influenced your development plans?

@cata Thanks so much Nick! That's a good question, most surprising would probably be that many people so far have asked me to integrate transactions right into the app, which was not really something I was planning for but now that so many people asked I'm actively thinking about integrating it (as an option ofc, I don't really wanna force anyone to use in-app transactions to sell/buy domains) also, related to this, we'll never take a cut from sales

💡 Bright idea

@phil @philipp_parzer Hey Philipp! Just some feedback. Adding domains is a bit painful now. I have to verify ownership with a txt record, which can take up to 48h to propagate. Which would be fine, if I'd be able to just submit my application, and then your system checks it again after 48h. But right now, what's happening is I just get the error message "TXT record not found", and the only thing I can do is to cancel and then I have to type in the domain and description again. I realize I can just set the txt record for all the domains I want to add now and then 2 days later come back and add them, buuut... slim chance I'm gonna think of it and do it.

@omwow thanks for the feedback! yeah, I'm aware of this I might add a polling feature where you add the domain, it gets saved as "unverified" and then we poll each second or something until it's verified what domain provider were you using and how long did it take?

@phil @philipp_parzer @omwow yeah I love the idea but the TXT thing seems complicated and I’m afraid to get started and mess things up. Please provide step by step instructions

This product seems very creative, but does it require blockchain technology support behind the scenes? I'm looking forward to it!

@nora_q no, no blockchain just domains and TXT records for verification why do you think it would include blockchain tech? or was it more of an idea to include blockchain features?

@gabe good thing is, due to it being easily shareable we don't really rely on a huge community right from the start, as you can just do your own thing and share the link / spread the word on social media and get leads that way -> people don't need to sign up to undead if they wanna buy your domains 👀
