I subscribed to Exody.com to get raw name files. The lists are huge and it is not the easiest thing to comb through the names. I don’t know about everyone else, but I cannot look at every name so I search for keywords I am interested in. I found a free tool that is helpful in this task, and that led me to two other free tools.

While I was at the Softnik.com site to download a trial of Watch My Domains Professional, I saw that they offer a free program called Domain Name Filter. With this program I can import any size text file of domain names and filter them based on various criteria. It doesn’t do everything I need, but considering it’s free, it’s very helpful.

While there, I noticed that there are two other free programs: Domain Name Status Reporter lets you monitor the status of a set of domain names. Domain Name Analyzer is a powerful brainstorming tool for finding domain names.

The entire series of their domain-related programs can be found on their Domain0Punch.com site.

P.S. Speaking of Exody.com files, those that use it know that there is no help. Trying to figure out which files are what is a nightmare. If someone is willing to help me out with some explanation, could you contact me so I can ask you a couple questions?
