1. .com ONLY (the asmple was mainly .coms, but it will evaluate anything)
2. Undeveloped (developed sites inflate metrics HEAVILY)
3. Valuable domain (I know this is hard to gauge, but it works better on names REALLY worth a lot ($10,000+)

I haven't updated in a while. Things have been a bit busy lately. However, Ohashi.US is finally at a 'complete' stage. The last part of the website, the Whois, section is finally finished.

The new Whois tool is not just a standard whois tool but a very powerful domain research tool. This is NOT designed for looking up availability (though it will perform that task) but more for researching your own domain names or those you are interested in. It looks up data on Google PageRank, Alexa Ranking, link popularity, overture score, DMOZ/Yahoo Directory Listings, Wikipedia References, Archive.org Records, Availability in major gTLDs/ccTLDs and more.

One final note is my newest site went live recently called Name Utilities. It is designed to provide you access to the most useful tools for doing domain name research as well as providing the latest in domain news to keep you informed whille you research.

2007-01-30 14:27:15

In my continual quest to upgrade Ohashi.US as the premier domain name information and research site I have added a new section, Data & Research. This is where useful data and research will be published in the future regarding domain names.

Currently there are two pages up with information on 3 and 4 letter domain name combinations. Each is available through the webpage or downloadable as a text file (zipped).

If you have requests for data to be generated or ideas for what you would like to see in that section feel free to contact me with your ideas/requests.

2007-01-20 13:11:34

Updated the Domain Name Cleaner to allow .mobi and .eu extensions. Any other requests please Contact me and I will see if I can accomodate.

2007-01-06 13:44:35

With a new year, Ohashi.US is taking on a new face (yet another new design). Also, I have added a Registrar Review Database. This database contains detailed information about a multitude of registrars and their offerings. It also integrates into a review/rating system. So please take a moment and cast a vote for your registrars and perhaps even write a review!

Subject: URGENT NOTICE OF IDENTICAL DOMAIN NAME APPLICATION BY A THIRD PARTY


Date: Tue, 08 Feb 2005 00:56:05 -0800




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
International Domain Name Registry (IDNR) has received an application
for registration of the domain .biz by a third party, that
is almost identical to your domain name .net.
International Domain Name Registry was founded for registration,
control and monitoring of domain names and trade marks that include
copyright control, fair business regulations, legitimate usage and
activity, dispute and claim consideration of property breach of the
domain for transfer to the court.

Registration of the domain name similar to your own can be done for
the reasons mentioned below:

1. The third party wants to use the domain name for any purposes,
including business, distinct from your business activity.
2. The third party wants to register the domain name for creation of
a business similar to yours.
3. The third party (that, probably, before registration of a domain
name was your competitor also) wants to disrupt the business of a
competitor, or intentionally attempt to lure the customers of
another business by creating a confusingly similar Web address.

Consequently, it is our opinion that this application may have been
submitted in bad faith.

You are required to submit to us your opposition to the third party
domain name registration contemplated herein and expressly advise us
of your intent to license this domain name (go to www.indregistry.com,
choose 'register a domain' then 'block the application of the third
party') prior to the expiration of this notice (which is one working
day after it is sent) or licensing rights to the domain name would be
assigned to any applicant. In this case IDNR WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR
THE LOSS OF DOMAIN NAME LICENSE, IDENTICAL OR CONFUSINGLY SIMILAR USE
OF YOUR COMPANY'S NAME; OR INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY OR
BUSINESS LOSSES.
Also IDNR further will not consider your complaint to infringement
of your rights for
IDENTICAL OR CONFUSINGLY SIMILAR USE OF YOUR COMPANY'S NAME; OR
INTERRUPTION OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY OR BUSINESS LOSSES.

Thank you.

Further research shows the address they have listed on the about page is a hotel and their phone number is listed.

I called this number, which was a hotel not a domain company, and alerted the hotel of INDRegistry using their contact information as a business location.

Now, if there was ANY doubt this was a scam, it should be gone.

I have written a short (well relatively short) articles describing how people new to the domain industry should approach buying and selling domains... as well as everything in between. I thought it was time to share my experiences with everyone out there and give a little something back to the community. I hope you like it.

Traffic Optimizer is HERE!

Today I finally got my act together and released traffic optimizer. It is not as easy to install as I would like. More will come later, but I thought I might as well release it and let you more advanced people get it setup and running. I would appriciate any feedback. Please feel free to post on the forum.

The new script I have been developing will be delayed a few days, possibly longer. My webhost ran off and left me in the dust with all the work I had done. So I have to redesign a lot of the database stuff. Oh well....

Updates-
I re-released a lot of scripts I developed a while back, mostly around January 2003. A set of counter scripts written in PHP/Perl; also some useful server utilities written in perl and even more useless junk like a pascal program demonstrating Caesar's Cipher. It can all be found under Tools Database-->Software.

I was playing around today and decided to query overture for every domain with OV that was 2-3 letter and .com. The list can be found here. Feel free to use this list for whatever you can think of, if you like it, feel free to link ohashi.us :) It would be much appriciated.
