I have put together a list of comprehensive and must have domain tools for everyone. Most are free and some are paid but have free versions. Give a couple a try and let me know what you think.

Domain Tools

1. Estibot

This is probably the single best set of domaining tools on the market right now. It really does not get any easier or better when it comes to a combination of finding domains and analyzing domain names. They have everything from the evaluation and metrics of a domain name and its keywords all the way to a domain name extractor.

2. DomainSuperStar.com

They have a GREAT set of tools to find domain names. They offer free and paid versions of their tools. Along with that their tools are extremely confident in finding domain names with ease. Literally it is as easy as putting in a couple keywords.

3. Google Keywords

Now this really is not a “domain tool” but it is a very very good resource when siting keywords for domain names. I always second check keywords with this tool obviously because everything is not perfect. It can also be used to find domain name if used in the right way.

4. DomainTools.com(Whois.sc)

They offer THE BEST whois look up service i have ever seen. They tell you just about everything about a domain name. Along with that they also offer some paid tools that help you in a big when doing domain name research. Go over and check out this expansive arsenal of unique tools.

5. DomainTools.com(SEO Browser)

I wanted to specifically point this out because it is insane about how spot on it is. It even tells you how to improve you SEO ranking on your site. All you have to do is type in the domain you want to look at in the whois look up and it will pop open a SEO Text Browser in the sidebar that you can pop out and use just like a real browser. YGrab.com scores a 99% BTW !

6. Compete.com

This is a stats analyzation tool. Now this does not directly relate to domaining but if you are analyzing your stats or buying a domain with traffic, i have found that this site is pretty much right on. It is a million times better than Alexa.com.

7. DomainPortfolio.us

This really isn’t a tool but it is something that i think everyone should look in to if they are looking to include an online portfolio for the viewing. It is a free portfolio script that is super easy to implement in to any existing site or as a stand alone site.

8. Domize.com

This is a really cool tool that searches domains availability on the fly. Its super faster and allows you to see available domains in the .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, and .us.

9. Namebio.com

I think this is one of the best domain sales reporting tools out there. They offer you pretty much any domain that has sold recently with a comprehensive ajax search tool. Super easy to use and a joy to look at.

10. Archive.org

Ever want to see what a site looked like 5 years ago or simply want to see if a site was ever on a domain name. Well archive.org is the site to check. They keep a cache ever month a site is alive or when it updates. This is very very helpful when trying to monetize a parked or expired domain name. This will tell you what your visitors are looking for.

11. DomainResearchTool.com

This is the all in one tool for you. Though it is paid you can do pretty much all of the things you need right from your desk top and in mass quantities. This is a must have for most serious domainers. This is what they have to say on the site:

Domain Research Tool was created to find domains with type-in visitors, search engine traffic, backlinks, PageRank, Alexa™ rank, whois details and more. It can also auto-appraise domains using user specified formulas, send bulk automated offer e-mails, track your current auctions, monitor important domains, filter incredibly large domain lists and zone files and much, much more. All with full multiple proxy support.

There is the list of great domain tools everyone should be using. If you have any that you would like to add to this list go ahead and leave a comment and i will update the list as people suggest new ones.
