First things first. Don't let unscrupulous sites potentially "claim jump" your domain name. You can afford to be a little paranoid while you're still dreaming up the perfect domain name. (Having said that though, I've never had any problems with the registrars I've used so far).

Use this safer stealth domain lookup instead.

Why is it safer? Because it does NOT use the whois protocol to search for domains (hint: port LIII).Technically it might not be as accurate, and the searches might still be detected by the registrar but far less likely than serving it up to them using their own WHOIS search servers or web pages. And no, domaincalc doesn't store any searches.

Instructions:

To just get a quick price estimate without searching for any names, just fill in theDomainCalc form below.

Notes:

• DomainCalc.com factors in domain name pricing and related fees ONLY (no non-domain add-ons like web hosting, etc. are considered).
• Many hosting companies and registrar companies offer free domain names if you also buy other products (like web/email hosting). So if you also want hosting DomainCalc.com won't do it for you yet.
• We've included mostly only companies that function primarily as a registrar. The hundreds of hosting companies that offer domains as an add-on to hosting plans are not covered.
