“We use it on every new client onboarding. The SharkDEX score is a quick sanity check on whether a name has the bones for SEO or whether the client should keep looking. The detail page covers about 90% of what I'd otherwise pull manually.”
“I run a portfolio of around 800 .au names. The drop pipeline view and the search filters are what I open first every morning. I've picked up at least a dozen sleepers this year that turned over in the marketplace within weeks.”
“Transferred eleven domains across from my old registrar last month. Took maybe twenty minutes total. The handoff is honest, no upsell carousel, no ‘protection’ tickboxes hidden behind a confirm screen.”
“For a tiny team like ours, the SharkDEX is the closest thing we've had to a research department. Search is fast, the slug URLs play nicely with our internal tooling, and the data has actually been right when we go to register.”

DomainShark started life as a tiny scraper logging Australian domains as they expired. More than a decade later we've collected 3,544,358 available records, built scoring around length, hyphens, history and wayback presence, and turned it into the SharkDEX, a search engine for the long tail of pre-loved Australian domains.
Today we help individuals, agencies and brokers find names that already have life in them, register fresh ones, and move portfolios around. Everything runs on the same dataset that's been growing daily for over ten years.
