There are many websites available on the Internet which will help you to find out expired domains. However, the best one is whois dot com as it will help you to find out expired as well as new domains which are available

As suggested by adrian, you can search Google by typing the exact keyword and you will have the sources you want. Yes Rock, i have heard about these free tools provided by eukhost.com in one of the thread. There is a wide range of tools offered for free to help you in Search Engine Optimization as well as for different purposes. But, I think few of the tools are not working. See, if you can fix them, so that user can use them properly. Expired Domain Checker is one of the tools that is not working.

I've forwarded this over to our Development team, they'll get those few non-working ones sorted out

It's not just about finding the domains. you probably have to hire a company which is is the area of getting those domains. It is a real jungle out there when it comes to grab some of the expired domains.

I think the value of a domain name depends on its brand potentiality and marketability, I hope most people have idea to choose a domain name themselves rather than hiring someone to provide such services. However, it is important to make sure the expired domains you're buying should have clean history.

You need to wait somewhere between 45 and 60 days before you can try to snatch it because if it's a great domain name others might be interested too.Best way to get is placing a backorder with Godaddy or any other service offering this.

Thanks, I've checked it but I don't find any expired domain names for specific search results. I am trying to find few domain names which are DMOZ listed but expired, can you share any tools to find such domain names from dmoz data?

You can use ValueDrops.com, it already does the filtering for you and displays the best dropping domains.

Well, i am keen to know where & how to check about domain name history so that i can check if it's blacklisted !

Are there certain types of sites that you are looking to snag up and grab then end up flipping? Or are you talking about general forums that are totally random?

**snowylee** · #14 (**permalink**) 08-06-2010, 21:14

Try godaddy. they are good.

Hi,
In my opinion the best is DropDay.com
All information, about all expiring domains, the is not for free anymore but after comparison i found that it most cheaper one.
Dmoz, Page Ranking, yahoo links, google links, creation year, keywords, search engines SERP`s and many more useful parameters.
Good luck
