Domain Hunter - Domain Search, Price Comparison, and Purchase Recommendation Skill

Skill Overview

Domain Hunter is an assistant skill that helps you find and purchase domains at the best possible price. It covers the complete process, including domain idea generation, availability checks, registrar price comparisons, and promo code searches.

Use Cases

1. Naming a new project: Generate 5–10 short, memorable domain candidates based on a project description, then use WHOIS to verify whether each is available for registration. Only confirmed-available names are presented for you to choose from.
2. Comparing registrar prices: When registering extensions such as .ai or .com, compare first-year prices, renewal prices, and total multi-year costs across registrars such as Spaceship, Cloudflare, Porkbun, and Namecheap to avoid the “cheap first year, double-priced renewal” trap.
3. Finding promo codes to save money: Automatically search registrars’ Twitter accounts and Reddit domain communities for currently valid promo codes and discount offers, then combine the results with price comparisons to provide a final purchase recommendation.

Core Features

1. Domain idea generation and availability checks: Generate candidates using naming patterns such as {verb+noun} and {noun+suffix} (common suffixes include app, io, hq, and ly), then verify availability through WHOIS or registrar search pages. Domains whose availability cannot be confirmed are marked “(unverified).”
2. Multi-registrar price comparisons: Use comparison sites such as TLD-List and TLDES to check current pricing and provide a comparison table including first-year prices, renewal prices, and total multi-year costs.
3. Promo code searches and purchase recommendations: Search Twitter and Reddit for promotional information from registrars such as @spaceship, @Namecheap, and @Porkbun, then provide the recommended registrar, detailed pricing, and a purchase link in a standardized format.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Domain Hunter purchase a domain directly for me?

No. It handles naming, availability checks, price comparisons, and promo code searches, and ultimately provides a recommended registrar and purchase link. You must complete payment and registration yourself on the registrar’s website.

Are there any special restrictions on .ai domains?

An .ai domain must be registered for a minimum of two years at a time. In addition, because of the high wholesale cost, premium extensions such as .ai and .io generally have few available promo codes. When comparing prices, the main factor is the markup charged by each registrar.

Why compare both first-year and renewal prices?

Many registrars attract customers with extremely low first-year prices but charge significantly higher renewal rates. Domain Hunter lists the first-year price, renewal price, and total multi-year cost together, then makes recommendations based on the long-term cost of ownership. WHOIS privacy protection is free at major registrars such as Cloudflare, Namecheap, and Porkbun.
