Word Lists Summary
What can I do here?
  • A word list is just a bucket of words — colors, animals, tech terms, your own product names.
  • Builder combines two of them into domain names to check. Pick Colors + Animals and you get redfox.com, bluewhale.com, jadeviper.com.
  • Browse the 31 lists below, or start your own.
  • New List starts an empty list — on its edit page you can type words one at a time, Bulk-Paste a batch from a spreadsheet column or comma list (free: up to 200 at once; Premium: up to 5,000), or upload/import a CSV or text file (free: up to 1 MB / 5,000 rows; Premium: up to 10 MB with no row limit). Every list has a type (category), and can be marked shared/global by an admin.
