Unfortunately not every domain that has no DNS record is available for purchase: some people configure no records, others are reserved by the registry (many short words for nTLDs). If something isn't in the DNS zone you can do a live DNS and WHOIS check to be more certain.

A while back I tied together this DNS zone + live false positive check into a website (for all TLDs and with price info):

https://domain.garden

AWS credits are still paying for this, so feel free to use it!



Great website, but it spammed by back button history. If you’re using pushState, I’d recommend changing it to replaceState.


Congrats! The interface is just super neat, how it gets updated when you hover (I imagine it caches the information about that specific domain for the next user).


Yep, the more people use the website the more accurate the database gets.
