Would you pay for a list of over 9000 unregistered, one-word, 6-7 letter .com domains?

Recently I generated a list of unregistered .com domain names to try find a business name for a project I'm working on.

I feel like there's other Indiehackers who would benefit from this list.

  • there's roughly 1600 six letter domains
  • roughly 7600 seven letter domains
  • they're all English words, OR are pronounceable as far as I can tell
  • the quality of them varies a fair bit, but there's definitely—in my opinion—some gems in there

So pretty much as the title says... Would you pay for this list? If so how much?

    You may be better off listing these somewhere and then directing people to a domain registrar via affiliate links to buy them. Likely make more money too.

    I'd pay like $10 for it

    Yes! In the spirit of a .com, $8.99.

    I turned this list of TLDs (that Ryan Brigden) posted on Github into a tapestry a few years ago:

    I'd probably make wallpaper out of yours. The standardized word length would make an especially interesting pattern.

    As a fun side project: I'd contribute to service that sends me an text each time someone registers a domain from that list and updates the name servers.

      That's actually so cool! I was thinking about doing heaps of TLDs for different words as well :)

      edit: just realised that you were on the IH podcast I listened to the other day. It was one of my absolute favourites, so thank you for that :D As someone who sometimes takes things too seriously, I think I needed to hear your take on starting businesses.

      That site is out dated I think, their word lists are completely registered. Or am I missing something?

    No, but I would certainly give you my email for it. Could be a great way to start building an audience...

      I thought this, but then I realised I don't have any related products coming that would make the email list useful
