Go Pro for even more data

BuildOnDomains' Pro tier unlocks the market-demand data behind every listing. Real search volume, what the traffic's worth, and the backlinks a domain already has. Also included is a database of domains you can register without an auction.

Real search demand

Google's 12-month average of monthly US searches for the exact phrase, so you gauge real demand before you bid.

Know what the traffic's worth

See the cost-per-click advertisers pay Google for the phrase, and how many compete for it. High competition often signals demand.

Inherit existing authority

See the backlinks and linking sites a domain carries from its previous owner, so you can get a head start on SEO.

Skip the auction entirely

A Pro-only database of domains that did not get picked up at auction and are are available to hand-register at any registrar.
