Ajax domain name registration
Looking for that perfect domain name can be a taxing job for some. I used to do my domain name hunting at NameCheap. A typical scenario would be to guide the mouse and click inside the textbox area, place both of my hands on the keyboard to type my domain name, reach back for my mouse, click on the submit button and wait for the page to refresh showing the results.
This can be a frustrating process if you find out that someone else already owns your domain name. Fortunately I don’t have to go through that process again! With the emergence of Ajax ( Asynchronous Javascript and XML), we can just type in our domain names and the results will show up instantly! This can really increase our productivity because a lot of the little unnoticeable actions will be eliminated.
I’ve compiled a list of some if not all of the Ajax powered domain name checkers around. They are listed in the order that they appeared in Google’s result pages using the keywords ‘ajax domain checker’. Of course if you want to use these tools you should make sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser.
Instant Domain Search
If you need to search for a thousand domain names in under a minute use Instant Domain Search!
Ajax Domain Search
AjaxDomainSearch takes a good 3-5 seconds before you get results. Almost the same speed as that of the normal page that refreshes.
AjaxWhoIs
AjaxWhoIs is by far my favorite. You add domain names to your favorites by clicking the heart icon on either the textbox or the results box. They even have plugins for Firefox!
PCNames Domain Search
PCNames has a fresh and clean interface and offers more tools for finding your domain name.
PHPAjaxWhoIs
Same functionality here but the responsiveness can be closely compared with AjaxDomainSearch. Although I like phpAjaxWhois’ interface design.
Tabeze
I really had a hard time thinking how to use Tabeze. I started to read their instructions which is sized at 11pixels! Aside from the font being small the color contrast they have chosen made it even harder to read! All in all I don’t really recommend this tool for you. You can accomplish your goals a lot more with the traditional domain name checkers around. But you should really try it out to know what I’m talking about.
Thanks to Ajax we can become more productive with our work. Its really hard to imagine the way the Web is today without it. Also I’m really puzzled why most of them loves green for their design! Do you use any of the following tools I listed above? If your favorite domain checker is not listed please feel free to send me a message or post it in the comments. Thank you for stopping by and reading.
