@birajst hey, do you mind sharing the basis logical structure/map of the TLDs? Tx

Great updates @birajst!!! I can see that we are displaying now even more TLDs!!!

compared 2 keywords with dotbbd - "liene" and "api".. though dotdb does show more results (not a huge difference anymore - we are coming closer and closer) > our related keyword results, I personally think, is much better great job!!!

scr for the keyword "api"

and for the keyword "liene":

@birajst what have you done to show event more TLDs and for achieving these great improvements?

@birajst btw, we are not always behind the dotdb

.. I just checked my first name "helmuts", and bang!! we provide more results!

nice!!!

SLD Checker – Progress Update

Hey everyone!

It has been a while since my last update here so I wanted to share what I have been working on behind the scenes.

Live Fallback Improvements
Since introducing the Live Fallback system, I have continued improving it so searches can handle missing or unavailable data more reliably.

Expanded TLD Coverage
A major focus has been on supporting more TLDs and registration extensions so SLD Checker can provide results across a much broader range of domains.

Infrastructure & Performance
There has also been quite a bit of internal work around data processing, performance and overall reliability. Most of this is not immediately visible from the frontend but it is important groundwork for scaling SLD Checker further.

API Access – Upsnatch.com
A milestone worth mentioning is that I have provided SLD Checker API access to Upsnatch.com, which is also helping validate and improve the API for external integrations.

There is still plenty being worked on, particularly around expanding coverage further and improving the underlying system. More updates soon!

Sorry for the late reply, been heads down in work lately!

I've been mainly focused on three things. Improving how the system discovers new TLDs automatically in the background, expanding the fallback so when stored data is missing it goes and fetches results live, and cleaning up how TLD data is collected and stored so it is more accurate and consistent. It is mostly behind the scenes work but it directly feeds into the coverage numbers you see in results.

Hey everyone!

A quick update on SLD Checker.

Search results have improved quite a bit recently, and coverage is now much stronger across many extensions. I’ve attached a few comparisons with dotDB below to show where things currently stand.

I’ve also been spending a lot of time behind the scenes improving the stability and reliability of SLD Checker, so it can handle the growing amount of data more consistently.

There’s still more work to do, but the progress so far is looking good. More improvements are coming soon!

SLD Checker 0.6 Beta is now live!

Hey everyone!

SLD Checker has officially moved from Alpha to Beta with the 0.6 release!

Here is what is new and what it means for you.

Bulk Search & Extracted Zones
Bulk Search now has a Clear All option so you can reset your search in one click instead of removing items one by one. The Extracted Zones section has also been cleaned up with better search, filtering and a clearer summary of coverage.

Cleaner Domain Statuses
The Unknown status is gone. Domains now show one of three clear statuses:

• Active
• Parked
• Inactive

No more guessing what a result means.

Faster and More Reliable Behind the Scenes
A lot of work went into making SLD Checker process domain data faster and more efficiently. What this means for you is fresher results, broader domain extension coverage and a more responsive search experience overall.

As always feel free to share any feedback or issues below. More improvements are on the way!

Hi @birajst - this is the first time I've had a chance to look at SLD Checker, and the dedicated site in particular looks really nice (https://sld.dnforum.com/) - and it's blazingly fast!

Perhaps not an entirely unexpected question, but are you still planning to add support for RFC 10023 (_for-sale TXT records)? I think it could be a really useful addition.

Hi @mdavids!! Thank you!! Is there a way we can regularly get a .nl zone file?

_for-sale TXT record implementation in on the list for us! @DNF Admin

Thanks, @mdavids ! Glad you liked it Yes, RFC 10023 is still on the list. I think it would be a really useful addition too.

Also, do you know if there’s any way we could regularly get access to .nl zone files?

Sweet!

I do know - but it's not the answer you're hoping for, unfortunately. The .nl zone file is not publicly available under the current policy.

Sweet!

Ah, understood. Thanks for confirming. At least now we know where things stand with .nl
