			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Webmasters and business owners who want to create a new web project face a problem during domain name registration. Should they register the additional domain name extensions of the domain that they want to register or should they skip that step? The first option is more expensive but ensures that no one else will benefit from type in traffic and typos. This can also prevent criminals from using these domains to confuse and attack potential visitors of the original website. Not only new websites and projects benefit from these domain name registration lookups. A webmaster who started with one domain name extension might want to check for the availability of the domain name with other extensions either because these were not available at the time of registration or to see if they can be registered at a later time.</p>
<p>The Domain Typo Generator aids the webmaster and business owner in the research. The online tool will check for available and registered domains based on the search term entered by the user. It will include popular typos like qwerty typos or look alikes in the domain name lookup.</p>
<p><span id="more-15646"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domain_typo_generator-500x135.jpg" alt="domain typo generator" title="domain typo generator" width="500" height="135" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15647" /></p>
<p>The domain name registration checker offers three different view modes. The registrant view mode will display the domain names that have been discovered, their registrants and the number of domains that are owned by the registrant. </p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domain_registration_information-499x136.jpg" alt="domain registration information" title="domain registration information" width="499" height="136" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15648" /></p>
<p>The top level domain view on the other hand displays the domain names and their com, net, org, info, biz and us registration status. This list contains significantly more domain names than the registrant view mode.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domain_registration-500x206.jpg" alt="domain registration" title="domain registration" width="500" height="206" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15649" /></p>
<p>The DNS view mode finally displays the domain names, their name servers and their IP address. This mode uses the same domain name list that the registrant view uses.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/domain_name_registration-500x184.jpg" alt="domain name registration" title="domain name registration" width="500" height="184" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-15650" /></p>
<p>Results can be exported into a csv file. Some results contain links to other tools offered by Domain Tools that will display detailed information. Webmasters who are interested in the domain name registration lookup can visit the <a href="http://www.domaintools.com/domain-typo/">Domain Tools</a> website to use the service.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/microsoft_windows.jpg" alt="microsoft windows" title="microsoft windows" width="128" height="128" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-11907" />There are literally thousands of online services that allow webmasters to lookup domain name registration information. These services will tell the webmaster if a domain name is available for registration or already registered. Many domain registrars allow users to place so called backorders which will basically make the domain registrar register the domain name in case the original owner does not renew the domain name in time.</p>
<p>There are however only a few software programs available that can lookup domain name registration information. The Domain Name Status Reporter supports the most popular domain name extensions like com, net and org but also country specific domain name extensions such as de, ca or fr.</p>
<p><span id="more-13825"></span><img src="http://www.ghacks.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/domain_name_registration-500x241.jpg" alt="domain name registration" title="domain name registration" width="500" height="241" class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-13826" /></p>
<p>It is possible to add new domain extensions in the options. All it takes is to enter the domain extension and a whois lookup server that is providing those information. Domain names can be entered manually or automatically from a text file. Each domain name will be listed in a table that is displayed in the main interface. </p>
<p>A click on Lookup All will perform the domain name registration lookup. The program will display if the domain name is available or taken. If it is taken it will display information about the registration date, the domain registrar, the domain expiration date and the last domain update.</p>
<p>The program is missing the means to automate the lookups so that the added domain names would be regularly checked.</p>
