Single domain lookup enhancements, updated UI
Posted on October 1, 2009 by Tauno
Several UI enhancements to MakeWords.com were deployed today:
- Clearer navigation, updated menu design
- Dictionary domains search should be more intuitive now. Just search for a dictionary word and keep clicking through those affixes and related words.
- The most significant upgrade was to the Single Domain Lookup feature:
In addition to instantly checking for domain availability, this feature automatically suggests related words and domains, that you can simply click on to save or register.
For instance, if the domain “photos” is not available, then the resulting page suggests several alternative domains or ways to expand your search:
As usual, your feedback is most welcome. Please save your comments to this blog post.

Bulk Domain Search
Posted on May 17, 2009 by Tauno
The newly added Bulk Domain Search feature at www.makewords.com opens up new capabilities for finding targeted keyword domains. Up to 100 names or phrases on separate lines can be checked with one query.
Bulk Search is particularily useful, when you need to check the availability of long keyword lists. Consider the following technique.
- Use the Google Keyword Suggestion tool to get keyword ideas related to your website. Lets try “web marketing” as an example. Sort the results by Global Monthly Search Volume. If there is a lot of competition with the more popular phrases, it is better to focus on the long-tail keywords which are searched more rarely but provide a suitable niche.
- Export the phrases to a txt file, select up to 100 rows and paste them to the Bulk Search Page at MakeWords. You can then run the search immediately – MakeWords will remove the spaces or replace them with hyphens, based on your search options.
- Save the available names to Favorites or register them via My Registrar links.
There are numerous alternatives for creating keyword lists, each may provide numerous unregistered domain names in valuable niches. At the time of writing this post, the following domain names were all available:
- the-marketing-web.com (search volume 18100)
- marketing-for-web.com (2900)
- web-development-marketing.com (6600)
- web-marketing-companies.com (2400)
- b2b-web-marketing.com
- marketing-on-web.com
- marketinginweb.com
