They seem to be still function because the latest TBR is represented but the site seems to be stagnant with the news and such static for a year.

I also get these messages when logging in.

Ask them how they curate the info and pull it into DN

Wasn't aware of it until today, even though it looks somewhat familiar.

Been using his service for over 10 years. No complaints.

What are your favourite features? Do you use the paid service? I tried setting up a trial paid subscription, but it failed at Paypal somehow.

I haven’t used it as much lately but I use to like the Alexa traffic rank feature. That is no longer available since I believe Alexa isn’t around anymore. It was a good indciaion if the name received decent traffic. That’s just one of the features I like to use.

I do, yes. Been a paying member for over 11 years. He actually decreased the price a few years ago from what it is now.

He use to post on DNForum back in the day. This is how I heard about DomDom.

I sent him a link to this thread.

Hello group!

I'm the creator of Domdom.ca.
I'm surprised to see some interest after all these years!

Here is the story of the project...
I am a programmer and been doing business online for 18 years now. Mostly SEO/affiliate marketing web sites.
At some point in 2011-2012 I grew tired and wanted to diversify. I decided to become a domain registrar specialized in .ca expired domains.
I did all the process with CIRA, built the web site and coded the many programs needed to gather and compile stats, etc. It took a solid 1-1.5 year of work if I recall and then Domdom.ca was born.

After only a few months though, I realised I wasn't fit for that. Not only the extreme competition but mostly the technical support and the endless requests from the clients! It killed me! lol! I was used to the quiet of the affiliate marketing world where I barely deal with any humans. (I like you fellow humans just not in this context) Also my other SEO venture was still working fantastic so it's not like I HAD to make this project work.

"Fail but fail fast" was my motto.
But I put a lot of effort in Domdom and was proud of the result, the way I built it.
So I decided to convert the project to a simple expired domains search engine so people can benefit from my effort.
Also I am still using Domdom for my own needs so it wasn't all in vain.

I have lost money in this project and to be honest the little peanuts I make with the current subscriptions isn't even worth the accounting hassle.
I wanted to wait until no one was using it to close the subscriptions for good and make it entirely private... Seems like it will wait! lol!

I won't add any new metrics or features in short or medium term that's for sure. I fix bug and keep it alive.
I thank you for your interest and if you have any questions, fire it up!

All custom bots/programs making endless requests here and there. I have access to thousands of IP and have 7 servers around the world. Mostly for my other business venture but it serves Domdom too.

Welcome aboard

I am going to give you a service rep designation.


Maybe we can work together and incorporate DomDom into DN.ca to help you eliminate the chores.

I'll send you a quick PM

Careful, it's running on ASP.net (I believe) and as @DomDom mentioned above relies on his IP address network

@DomDom : Thanks for joining and posting.
