How names are picked

A name makes this list when the Internet Archive saw a website on it for at least three different years, our spam check scored it 10 or less, and it has no hyphens. They are then ordered by our quality score, so the strongest names come first. You can change any filter above. Picks are a starting point, not a guarantee: always check the history yourself before buying.

When a name drops it is released to the first registrar to ask for it. For a name others want, a backorder with a drop-catching service is the best chance; quieter names can often be registered at any registrar shortly after the drop. See auctions, backorders and drop-catching.

What the columns mean

• History: the year the Internet Archive first saw a website on the name, and how many years it was captured. This is website history, not registration age.
• Spam: our own 0 to 100 score from the archived URLs and history: gambling, adult, pharmacy, replica or loan pages, Chinese/Japanese keyword spam, mass-generated pages and long spells of redirects all raise it. Hover or tap the score for the reasons. It is an estimate, not Moz's Spam Score.
• Authority: the name's rank in Common Crawl's public web graph (lower is stronger), a free measure of how well linked it is across the web.
• Words and topic: under each name, the dictionary words it splits into and its topic, so you can filter for keyword or brandable names. Pattern uses C for a consonant, V for a vowel and N for a number, so CVCV finds names like "bako".
• Other TLDs: how many of .com, .net, .org, .co.uk, .io, .de and .info are already registered with the same name. Names taken in many extensions are usually valued keywords.
• DA, TF, DR: Moz, Majestic and Ahrefs metrics, shown where we have measured them. A dash means not measured, never zero.
