      <description>&lt;p&gt;I have launched a &lt;strong&gt;free, independent, and super-fast search engine for domain names&lt;/strong&gt; with some interesting features.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;It is called &lt;strong&gt;.dotisto&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How a domain search engine works, everyone knows. You type in a name and see if it's free or busy. Such search engines are provided by every domain registrar. The only thing is that all these search engines are.... lousy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I've been on the Internet for a while now, and more than once I was looking for a name for a new site/service/shop/blog or project. Finding a good address is not an easy art. A lot of things bothered me in this kind of search engine on hosting sites. Many things were missing. So I made my own tool. For myself and for others.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What makes .dotisto different from other domain search engines?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
👉 .dotisto is &lt;strong&gt;EXTREMELY FAST&lt;/strong&gt;. In less than 200 ms you will get information on whether the domain is registered or free with an efficiency of ~99.975%. And that's still in the process of typing! Another few hundred milliseconds and hints of other extensions and domains are displayed.&lt;br&gt;
👉 The search engine is &lt;strong&gt;INDEPENDENT&lt;/strong&gt; of registrars or hosts, so it is not limited by any particular set of domain extensions (TLDs).&lt;br&gt;
👉 Thanks to the above, &lt;strong&gt;there are 1200+ domain extensions&lt;/strong&gt; in .dotisto from all over the world - including various very exotic and hard-to-find (but very interesting :))&lt;br&gt;
👉 All domains are divided into &lt;strong&gt;27 THEMATIC CATEGORIES&lt;/strong&gt;, so you can easily search for your perfect name among interesting TLDs&lt;br&gt;
👉 With each search, &lt;strong&gt;smart domain suggestions&lt;/strong&gt; are also checked. And if they are available for registration, they are displayed and proposed (all the time in &amp;lt;1 sec). Example: when searching for the domain "bestwebcam.com", the tool also checks the domains "bestweb.cam", "best.webcam" and "bestwebc.am" (yes, there are such extensions 😉)&lt;br&gt;
👉 All this while &lt;strong&gt;respecting PRIVACY&lt;/strong&gt;. The search engine does not save or forward anywhere what domains are checked/free/registered.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, .dotisto also has several tools that allow you to verify a domain before you buy it to avoid an unpleasant and painful mishap:&lt;br&gt;
⚒️ &lt;strong&gt;DISPLAY the domain name out loud&lt;/strong&gt; (through a speech synthesizer), so we can check how the domain sounds if we were to dictate it over the phone or in an advertisement&lt;br&gt;
⚒️ &lt;strong&gt;Easily search GOOGLE&lt;/strong&gt; to see if any other company is already operating under a given name&lt;br&gt;
⚒️ &lt;strong&gt;Checking DOMAIN HISTORY&lt;/strong&gt;, i.e. what was previously at that address (very important for SEO and reputation!)&lt;br&gt;
⚒️ &lt;strong&gt;Check if the name is not a REGISTERED TRADEMARK&lt;/strong&gt; in Patent Offices around the world (the trademark owner could sue us and, among other things, take the domain away from us)&lt;br&gt;
⚒️ Copying the domain to the clipboard, checking information about the registered domain in WHOIS, 1-click check of what kind of website is at a given address, and other small conveniences.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Search engine available free of charge, without ads or interruptions at &lt;a href="https://dotisto.com"&gt;https://dotisto.com&lt;/a&gt; or shorter at &lt;a href="https://dotis.to"&gt;dotis.to&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
