I was referred to registercompas.com in order to buy high PR domains. At a cost of $40 per month, I asked myself, what can they offer that expireddomains.com or any of the others do that is worth $40 per month?

Ant thoughts?

    I use it Tim I guess and have also been told it doesnt `find`any more domains than Expired domains.com but its a complete analysing tool it shows every metric you need its really really good

      The main and imo only benefit is that it saves you a lot of time from doing research yourself, like pulling them through Netpeak Checker and that kind of tools.

      Especially when working with lists of 100.000's it's kind of essential to use a service like registercompass.

        Thats exactly what it does great.. You have to do your due diligence anyway and it saves tons and tons of time plus has loads of cool features that help

          Have to add that expireddomains.net also has an option to filter on DA and MozRank, hadn't seen that before as well as an option to filter domains on the English language.

          Actually quite more advanced then I thought.

          The choice gets pretty narrow when using those filters though, didn't realize that the offerings were so limited. Try for yourself DA30+ MozRank3+ PR3+ and English and you'll be left with a few dozen domains

            Already have tried it and added Trust flow and yes it does get very very narrow

              Someone gave me a sneak peak at their Database (Jim), and I just got the distinct feeling that some powers above where cherry picking the best domains. And leaving the best of the rest for the peasants.

              I have my own ways of pulling lists, and my lists seemed to be a lot bigger and better then their list. I guess that's to be expected though if your using a third party to find domains for you. And the third party is aware of the value of what your looking for. It would be only a natural process of profit making for them to take the cream off the top.

              Dennis, you can well afford by now I'd say to look into creating your own registercompass for in-house usage.

                I'm still happy with my broker and keep him all to myself

                He pulls domains from like 20 different registrars / auctions / back ordering etc. so mostly I have plenty of choice, only a bit tight right after the Google PR update.

                Looking a bit more into back ordering myself though as that's where the real steals are.

                Btw, GoDaddy is doing the same thing but then selling the domains in between TDNAM and auctions privately to people who buy in bulk. A bit better then the TDNAM crap and a bit worse then the PR2-PR3 ones. Kind of the domains that are doubtful whether they will sell in the auction.

                That conspiracy theory won't fly. They can't cherry pick out domains because the list of expiring domains is available to ton loads of people outside of register compass. Shucks every namejet customer can down load the list each day. Do they filter out a lot of crap? Probably.

                Sorry Kev but thats just crazy. Though you think you can or have - you haven't. Just the APi costs of creating a register compass for yourself would kill your pocket each month. You have to pay majestic for api access, Seomoz at a certain level pull data from whois and on and on. Thats not even taking into consideration pulling current data from Godaddy, namejet and snapnames. People who don't use RC underestimate the amount of filtering and data it has. I May be doing something in that area but it will be for a service not just myself and yeah You will have to leave out some junk domains. Yesterdays drop list from namejet in a text file was 1.6 Mb

                The only thing that makes sense if you have deep pockets to put together your own is a drop catching setup but its got some stiff private competition beyond the likes of snapnames and namejet .

                  It's no real conspiracy with a little logic.

                  You have access to data (domains)
                  Within the data are domains with high monetary value.

                  Do you?

                  A: Hand it out to the masses
                  B: Buy it for yourself

                  Have: But like we say, this is a forum and what people claim is all just bubbles and squeak. There's a whole bunch of other filters domains need to pass before they make it to Majestic, Moz etc... Costs are pretty low for return if you ask me. There are a lot more registrars and "freely" accessible databases available with all sorts of info. You just don't know where to look or who to ask. But that's cool...

                  Over Christmas, I was sending over jimkirk1943 a few domains that "didn't" make the cut for me. And he was looking for niche specific. That's the only evidence I'm willing to offer on what I sent him, and what he didn't see listed in RG.

                  Finding it hard to find a TF30 DA40 Mike?

                  That's my baseline.

                    Sorry this I ain't quite getting, you seem to suggest that certain domains don't make it to Majestic/Moz and at the same time you use their stats as baseline.

                    You mean they don't make it to Register compass / Expireddomains.net instead but it was late when typing this?

                    Otherwise care to explain?

                      Your trusting a site that was set up with the sole purpose of feeding PBN owners and domainers.

                      The creators of such sites are well aware of the value of a good domain. Why on earth would they hand the best over to anyone?
                      Would you?
                      Would anyone?

                      HELL NO !!!

                      You'd cherry pick that list to pieces.

                      Who wouldn't?

                      I'm going by what I saw when Jim let me have a sneak peak. My first thought was, damn that list looks a bit small. My second was, where's the domains I sent Jim to buy in that list? My third was, oh I get it their probably filtering those for their homies..

                      What I sent Jim was nothing special. But the way people talk around here about TF25 being good made me think. What kind of lists are they struggling to find TF25s with. There's loads of them every single day.


                      I hinted to you before that you where looking in the wrong places for expired domains (the recent index) . Most of these expired domain finders have tiny databases that go back only a couple of years at best.

                      To find the really good domains you need to go back to sites that where up prior to the link spam evolution. How to find them, well you know how. The web is in a big pyramid shape when it comes to things like PR, DA, TF.

                      Start at the top and work your way down. You just have to find some good DB's to get you started. Everything else just requires a decent coder and some good server power.

                      You like TF? A couple of weeks ago I showed a screenshot in another thread of a TF35 I picked up for $11 if I remember. I got a TF50 around Christmas for $15.

                      Did you see those ones in RG?

                      I doubt it..

                        Lol you don't have to convince me.

                        Thought you were talking about the domains that get cherry picked, not stone old ones that expired before the domain buying hype started (Hayden's method so to say).

                          Hayden's method was around long before Hayden. And as you can understand from his point of view. He either didn't know or didn't want to share the full method.

                          From what I read on his site, he gives a good enough idea about what to look for. Who could blame him for holding back the how.

            Too much filtering. I guess in your case since people stupidly believe PR as a metric is still viable (because Google did one semi update) you have to use PR but to me you filter DA with trustflow.

            Looking a bit more into back ordering myself though as that's where the real steals are.
            Rare to find anything really good with trying to catch domains. Too many people in the game now for them to miss bidding. I've seen a couple because they have fell out of the index but thats not much different than old link domains (what some people used to call the Hayden method) and those you can still find with the right setup.

              When I remove the PR from the equation it doesn't show more domains that are available (filter DA30+ MozRank3+), obvious MozRank kind of equals PR so perhaps that's why.

              I would need to focus on different registrars that don't offer auctions to find the steals with the back order method. Based on what my broker provides I know where to look.

      By the way I was going to respond to your PM and forgot. Sorry. Had something but not at this time. I thought about doing some brokering but think I will pass. I make more money using them than selling them - by far.

      As for Tim's question. I shudder to think how time consuming my workflow would be researching domains without Register Compass. Its all about the filtering

    Its been weeks now and I still haven`t found the PR5 domain I want its starting to annoy me ! It wouldn`t be so bad but there was one that had all the specs I wanted and for some reason I missed the end of the auction and now I use that domain as a bench mark and since nothing has come close to it.

    Guess if I went higher I could find something but I`ve been trying to keep it under $1500/1600, I feel alittle embarrassed that I`m asking all you guys for help finding that perfect domain I`m usually a pretty independent chap and have been a full time marketer for afew years now but its not quite as easy as it sounds and I`ve been compairing one domains to another for sooo long its starting to mentally effect me now lol
