Default Checking Domain Availibilty

Need a website to use when you want to check the availability of a domain?

Try clickey.com, CheckDomain.com, NIC.com, Xona.com.

Default Xona.com

With this website, they offer a service that is unheard of in the industry, which is searching what is called “domain hack domain names.”

This is a long way of saying “unique” domain names like “out.rage.ous.com.”

Thanks ArtPark. I'll save those links. I haven't registered a domain yet, but it didn't occur to me to be concerned about similar names.

In Ontario recently there was a female politician who had a domain name very similar to an adult site.

You can imagine...

Generally all the domain registration websites also let you check the domain availability. GoDaddy.com or Namecheap.com

Web hosting sites that bundle services will allow you to check availability of a domain name and register and renew it through them every year
