Wow, great advice.

You are right, I'll take that into account.

Maybe I was confused because the domain for this project was registered through Gandi.net and I had to pay that tax as I currently live in the EU. :)

For now this tool does not help to find such domains, but it sounds like a really nice feature to implement, thanks.

I didn't want to make anyone upset with this tool.

The current version of the service is based on the DNS lookup, which is not always accurate. The errors may happen when a domain does not have a name server record specified or it is in the a redemption period.

The current version is an experiment that checks if such a tool can be useful for people. All the received feedback will be used to improve it. Using more reliable approach of domain availability checking for sure has the highest priority.

The domains are shown in a random (but fixed) order at the moment, but I think it's better to sort them by price. Do you have any better criteria on your mind?

Done

Thank your for the detailed feedback!

You can get the availability for most of the known TLD if you specify the fully qualified domain name in the input. I am going to tune the list of the shown TLDs in order to have the most popular/interesting ones there.

Which registrars would you like to be added?

You can just type the domain name with ccTLD included, e.g. "google.us". It will show in the top row.
