hgfischer/domainerator

Simple application written in Go that combines two wordlists and a list of TLDs to form domain names and check if they are already registered.

Domainerator

Domainerator was my first Go application. It combines two wordlists (prefixes and suffixes) and a list of TLDs to form domain names and check their DNS status. It outputs a file with each combined domain name and the respective DNS status.

History

Not a long one, but...

I've developed it after getting tired of trying to find some good domain names available to be registered. In the beginning it was a slow Ruby script that still can be found as a rubygem with the same name, and now I've ported it to Go and made a lot of improvements in the method used to check for availability and speed.

Benchmark

I was able to run a check with 2,288 domains in about 13 seconds using 100 goroutines in a MacBook Pro Late 2008!
