Mononames helps you find available domains to hand register

Mononames sifts through millions of available domains, including one word domains and .com domains with common prefixes and suffixes.

I’ve long been a fan of OneWord.domains, a site that helps you find exactly what it describes: one-word domain names available for registration.

A few months ago, Gaëtan Le Heurt-Finot, a master’s student and entrepreneur in France, emailed me about a similar tool he set up called Mononames. I love it when entrepreneurs try new things for the domain business, so I checked it out.

The early version was super useful but a bit clunky to use. Gaëtan sent spreadsheets each week with the one-word domains, and it took a lot of time sifting through them to find decent domains to register.

Recently, he created an optional web interface, which has been a game changer in terms of ease of use.

For each list, you can sort by how popular the second level domain is, the keyword sentiment, type of word (e.g. noun), and length.

Mononames covers lots of country code domains and new top level domains.

Of course, all one-word domains in .com are already taken. But Mononames has expanded significantly in the .com space by helping find two-word domains with common prefixes and suffixes.

Example lists include .com names in the form GetKeyword .com, MyKeyword .com, and KeywordAI .com.

I’ve registered many domains using Mononames. To be clear, these are hand-registered domains. It can take quite a bit of searching to find names worth registering, but I’ve found ones I would have paid for had they shown up on an expiring domain list.

Mononames works on a lifetime model with packages at $49.99 and $69.99.

If you are interested in hand-registering short domains, I recommend checking out Mononames.
