Most bad expired domains reveal themselves in under a minute. These three signals disqualify 70–80% of names before I even check deeper:
1) Anchor Text Mismatch
If the historical anchors are casino/pharma/foreign-heavy → autofail.
2) Age Instability
If WHOIS shows sudden recent drops or multiple ownership resets → PASS.
3) No Clear Buyer Type
If I can’t define “who would buy this?” in 5 seconds → resale odds are low.
These three filters alone keep the shortlist clean and save a lot of time.
Hope it helps someone doing daily auctions or pending-delete hunting.
If anyone wants, I can also share what signals make a domain a BUY, not just a PASS.
