Hi guys,

A few weeks back, I was little bored on the weekend and I've made a little script to run the dictionary words (around 100,000 words) through the WHOIS just to see how many dictionary words are still remaining in .com.au domains.

And found out that there are still 47,000 dictionary words available to register!

Of course, most of the useful words are probably already taken but it was interesting to see the remaining words on that list.

If you guys want to see this list, I can put it up here but as I said it's 47,000 words and that many lines of words so I don't know if it's a good idea to put it up here as a thread.

Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Cheers,
Jay

I'll be interested in seeing the list Jay! I'm sure others would too

I'd love to see the list, as I'm sure many others would too. Maybe you could attach it as a csv or similar?

Hi please share this =)

Would be interesting =)

Would be careful when registering, the fact that it is in the dictionary doesn't mean anything of itself.

Dictionary names are never automatically good names to register.
Remember that "CRAP" is in the dictionary.

I wrote scripts like this a year or so ago and found some good .net.au domains but literally found no good (subjective) .com.au domains for my purposes. Here is a small sample.

A good tip - is to use common word dictionaries rather than normal (big) dictionaries - or another method is to use top domain sales lists like top domain auction results etc from other TLDs or ccTLDs..

If it is genuinely a high quality name it would have been registered because someone would have seen value regardless of a sale in another extension.

A lot of people do go out and register based on sales in other extensions and the end result is registrations like gloto.com.au type stuff or popular keywords that aren't really that good, it is a very poor strategy in my view because it just following someone else who might have overpaid. Most of the names will probably fall into that category or the category of a term which doesn't work for the Australian market.

Better off using actual metrics that may put money in your pocket through development or in someone else's pocket in the case of resale, ie search popularity, PPC bids etc.
