Here is an interesting resource about Domain Names, useful for webmasters.

Domain Names Tools, Software and Articles

Domain Stats - Bulk multithreading checks

2007-10-28T16:16:00.000-07:00

Sometimes you need to check domain stats - availability, link popularity, presence in DMOZ, Yahoo, etc. It's hard to find a good web service that can lookup all the parameters fast.

I often use this handy software - Available Domains Pro
It's fast and easy-to-use. Supported: Yahoo, Alexa, Altavista, Overture, Google, AllTheWeb, DMOZ/Yahoo directory!

Google PR - resources

2007-10-27T09:21:00.000-07:00

To check one site's google PR - http://www.checkpagerank.com/
It additionally checks if it's a "faked" PR (there is a method to link any domain with no PR at all to PR-rich web site, this tools can handle this).

Bulk Google PR Checker (the one I prefer) - http://www.smartpagerank.com/bulk-pagerank-checker.php

Web Site Ratings - All in One!

2007-06-19T07:35:00.000-07:00

Simple and useful service collecting your web site ratings from all major search engines and social services - popuri.us

It shows Google PR, backlinks, Technorati Links, del.icio.us Bookmarks, Bloglines subscribers and other information.
Perhaps, there are even more useful services. I will be looking for them.

Domain hunger

2007-05-25T18:21:00.000-07:00

Yesterday I found web site providing soon-to-delete domains. I thought these days no one would register this "crap", moreover there is a rumour that Google drop PR for domain as soon as it expires. Anyway, I loaded the list of domains in special software, allowing to check domain availability and decided to check them from time to time during the day. What do you think had happend? All domains were registered immediately after they deleted! There were about 20 or 30 domains. It seems that during this year domain hunger has ever increased!

I need to say that those domains had a non-zero PR and had some backlinks. But I know that you can buy a PR5 link for $30 per year, and it doesn't make a sense to purchase a domain and hope that it will maintain its 2.5 PR without any good backlinks. Perhaps the buyers desire to build and develop the domain, but it should definitely cost more than $30. So this "domain hunger" is a real mystery for me.

Here are the links I used:

Listible - URL listings with RSS feeds

2007-05-23T13:44:00.001-07:00

I was looking for a complete list of social bookmarking sites and here's what I've found:
http://www.listible.com/list/social-bookmarking-sites

This web site is not the new one, but what a great idea! All listings are free of spam due to its visitors. They can report spam with a single click.

But anyway, I'm going to search such lists in Google. The problem is that there are too many services and too little visitors. Listible.com has a nice design and features, but listings are not complete. I think new resources are created faster than the users find a time to add it. Perhaps such services should pay for a new relevant link!

Watch your competitor's domain

2007-05-23T13:44:00.000-07:00

If you own a web site, you probably use some tracking system and know your keywords and positions in Search Engines. But what about your competitors?
About an year ago there was some service allowing to see top web site keywords, but it was rather limited.

And now we have an interesting service - SeoDigger.com.

Parsed approx 44,000,000 keywords with depth of 20 first Google results!

That's what they say. They used top 50kk keywords with the most traffic to parse the output from Google and saved in their database.

I guess it's useful for a good check - you get listing with keyword, position in Google and traffic estimates in Overture and Wordtracker.
Very interesting tool!
