24 alternatives to Your Domains Wrapped 2025

Hi HN, You know that feeling when you have a brilliant idea at 2am, buy the domain immediately, and then never touch it again? Last month I sat down to figure out how much money I've been bleeding on domain renewals, and honestly, I was scared to look. I had domains scattered across GoDaddy, Namecheap, and a few other registrars I barely remember signing up for. I did what we all do: I built a tool for it. It's basically "Spotify Wrapped" but for all those domains you bought and forgot about. Connect your registrars manually, and get: - How many domains you have - Total renewal costs -…

    Eight years ago, I was job hunting and felt embarrassed by my Gmail address. I tried registering firstname.lastname — taken everywhere. So I thought: "I'm in IT, I'll set up my own domain with my own IMAP/SMTP. How hard could it be?" A lot went wrong. Forgotten renewals. rocky DNS mistakes. I ended migrating toward Google Workspace, but in the end it felt overkill, having a subscription there plus the whole registrar subscription, and the whole GAFAM sticker on it. Moreover, the final price was way too high for me at the time. Six months ago, someone approached me and related to that…

    Hey HN. This is a weekend project of mine. It's an idea I had after seeing so many comments here about the lack of available .com names for startups. As PG once said: "Take a luxury and make it into a commodity"[1]. So, I decided I'd try turning name consulting from something only large corporations could afford to something anyone could. I hope you'll take me up on it :) If you'd like to see a few examples of my work, just check out the links in the footer. Thanks for your attention. [1] http://www.paulgraham.com/ideas.html

    Problem: I (accidentally) hoard domains :') 1. I get excited about a new project 2. I buy a domain 3. I get busy, and the domain collects a thick layer of dust I know I'm not alone in this, either So, I had the idea of creating a simple and casual marketplace for folks like me to list their domains at a fair price with a nice community feel to free up these caged domains It felt like a great project for me to pick up some new skills, so I got to it All up, it took me about a month, and I built the whole thing live on Twitch I've always sat on the design, marketing and front-end side of the…

    I tend to use AI to brainstorm domain names, but I kept wasting time pasting each idea into Namecheap to see if they were available. So I built DotComBuddy - it generates ideas (using DeepSeek V3 - switched from GPT-4o after realizing quality was just as good) and checks availability in real time via Name.com’s API. Built with Next.js and Vercel’s AI SDK, the app gives you a table of available domains with their price. 10 free searches to try it out, then $9/year (what I’d pay to never do this manually again). Sharing this for anyone else tired of switching tabs to check domains. Happy…

Know the signs of Domain Addiction: - Owning more domains than you have customers - Buying .ai domains without knowing Python - Renewing parked domains out of guilt Contains a 'Wall of Shame' page to verify domain collections (I scrub domains from the DB after TXT verification).

    Hey there, HN people! I would like to share with you a little tool I've been working on this year. It's called Newsy https://www.newsy.co Problem I have more than 30 domains that I've bought over the years. I plan to (eventually) do something with them, but meanwhile, they are un-used and just sitting there. I want to use them somehow. I know there are a few impulsive domain buyers out there! :) My Solution I wanted to turn my un-used domains into something useful without me having to do too much work. So I created Newsy https://www.newsy.co It turns your un-used domains…

    I've noticed that in the IndieHacker space, there are two distinct groups of people. Group 1: Have a million ideas, a thousand unused domains in their registrar account, and 15 projects that they're currently working on. Group 2: Have the drive to start something, but for the life of them can't find a good idea to start working on. I wanted to try and make a tool on my site that will bridge the gap between these two groups. The idea is this: People from group 1 can list a combination of a domain, logo and business plan on the site. You can list it for sale on any platform such as Gumroad,…
