How to Find and Analyze Expired Domain Names for Free – By Josh MacDonald

How to Find and Analyze Expired Domain Names for Free – By Josh MacDonald

Want to join my private case study group? http://searchstudy.io/

In this video, we talk about how to use Dom Cop to find expired domains for free. We then export the domains using a fancy method of extracting the domain names from HTML, also for free. Then we use GoDaddy bulk domain checker to see which ones are available. Second to last, we used Ahrefs, Moz and Majestic to check the domains metrics and check for spam. Lastly, we use the internet achieve way back machine to check if the domain had hosted Chinese content previously or if it had been a private blog network domain. This is the video you need to watch for finding expired domains for your PBN.

Tools we used:

    Good stuff! Subbed in case you post more videos.

    Sublime is available for Windows too, much better than Notepad++

    domcop.com Free? You just have 2 days trial and you don’t have access to expired domains. Change your header.

    Hi Josh, is it advisable to get an expired domain with existing 301 redirect?

    bro~
    div all-domain only shows 10 in domcop :/

    I love doing these videos, but I think if we pooled together a group of 25 people who are serious about SEO who are willing to financially contribute to private case studies, then the value offered could be huge. Alone $100 a month won’t do much for a case study but from 25 people, $2500 a month could get some serious results. If you’re interested in being involved, fill in your contact info: https://searchstudy.io/

    I hear that Ahrefs has more backlink data than Majestic. Is it worth the extra $ to pay for Ahrefs or is Majestic sufficient? I also tend to hear that TF/CF is the most reliable metric, so I’ve been leaning towards Majestic but I don’t want incomplete data to steer me into making bad domain purchases.

    I was just literally checking your sales page on one of the forums. Couple of hours later see this video! Something seems familiar. Go check your nick on the forum, of course it is you! 😀 How have the sales been doing? 🙂

    I just had a friend make over a hundred grand selling nintendovr.com and mariokartvr.com. Apparently they are coming out in Japan already. I dont know if they were expired, but the profit is there.



  13. Whatever on September 16, 2021 at 11:26 pm

    all you had to do was click "copy all" and the godaddy bulk domain search results instead of doing all that text formatting stuff



  14. Bharat K on September 16, 2021 at 11:26 pm

    Hello , I am Lansully, I am providing this is a seasonal gig I only run ever so often as my supply of quality domains like this are very limited, if you see this gig online then your probably in luck because it will be taken down shortly due to the limited supply of these types of domains. When I run out, i’m out… so I have to pause the gig until the supply is replenished. You can hire me for this service using the below link:
