Ninja-like Domain Name Search

Oct/12 in Online Apps

Fast Domain Name Search How would you like to search for domain names as fast as a ninja does?  Now, sure I don’t know many ninjas that spend a lot of time doing domain name searches, but that isn’t the point.  The point is Ajaxdom has a cool tag line for a domain name lookup too, and I’m going to take advantage of it.

Claiming to be the world’s fastest domain name lookup tool is a pretty big claim to make. I do have to say though, that Ajaxdom is pretty darn fast.  How fast?  Well, you didn’t just see that ninja jump down, make bunny ears behind your head and disappear in a puff of smoke, did you?  It is that fast.

You can search for .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .name, .us, .ca, or .uk domain names.  Here is an example of what the results look like:

Search for Different Domain Extensions

Damn, my plan to grab Mitch.something is always foiled!  There goes my birthday present (you know it is only five days away, right?)  Shameless birthday mentions aside, Ajaxdom is a fast domain name search lookup that might be well worth your time if your in a hurry to find that perfect domain name to use on your next big web site project.

Another Domain Information Tool

Jul/02 in Online Apps

Get more info on any domain name out there.

Looking for a way to get an entire social web site profile of your domain name via one simple online tool?  Buildstats is another domain information tool that does just that.  All you do is insert your domain name, and then you will be taken to a page with tons of information about that previously entered domain name. 

Some of the details you get per domain include:

  • Number of pages indexed via the various search engines
  • Page information
  • Your rank via Pagerank, Technorati, QuantCast and more
  • Social popularity and graphs

Here is the example search I came up with for mitchelaneous.com:

It is a simple web site, that does it’s job well.  Check out Buildstats.com to lookup information on your own domain name of choice.

Abouthisite.com offers a very unique look at the world of domain lookups.  They not only give you the standard WhoIs-type information.  They also offer you homepage information, general information, location (with a map!), IP neighborhood, and a little frame to check it all out yourself within the web site layout.

It has plenty to love, but would like to see even more tools avaliable.  Right now DomainTools is still my favorite domain lookup tool.  So if your looking for another way to do a little more research about a favorite domain, give abouthisite.com a shot.

14 Guru Networking Tools

Jan/27 in Popular Posts, Web Hosting

Here are some of the best networking tools on the Web these days:

  1. Network-Tools.com – Ugly interface but a little something for every network tool loving freak.
  2. Pingdom Tools – The best looking set of network tools, ping, traceroute and page loading tools included.
  3. DNS Goodies – Lots of goodies here to love from whois, ip check, ping and more.
  4. Traceroute.org – Need to do a traceroute from more than one location? The interface is horrible but the info is handy.
  5. DNS Stuff – Another list of your generic domain name tools. Also has a paid service for more perks and choices.
  6. My Nameserver – Tons of DNS related lookup tools here. Also good to look up abuse, domain name worth and more.
  7. DNS Tools – Ping, traceroute, whois and more. I really like the fact you can “search for all” here too.
  8. DomainTools.com – Probably my all time favorite, DomainTools.com has everything you could want under the sun.
  9. Ajax DNS – Look up your DNS info in a crazy cool ajax powered interface. Not just eye candy here though, good all around resource.
  10. IP Tools – Another “we do everything” network tool web site. Dozens of search boxes with dozens of tools.
  11. Internet Tools – A handful of Internet query tools so you can do quick searches for things such as various whois searches.
  12. Ajax DNS Bench – Drop and give me 20! 6 ajax powered DNS tools here to pick from.
  13. My IP Neighbors – Now you can use this site to do a reverse DNS search to find out who else is on your server.
  14. Who is Hosting This – Find out the host or server that a domain name is using. Quick and effective (for nosey people only).

Now I wouldn’t recommend trying to use all of these, as many of them preform the same functions. Find the ones that work best for you, and next time you need to do a ping, traceroute or whois search you should be more than ready for the job.
