I was wondering if anyone could think of a way to find websites that have just gone live?

Is there either

A, and index of new domains

or

B, A way to find as soon as a website uploads to the net?

Any ideas are welcome.

What do you mean by 'live'?
There are all sorts of databases of domain names.

If you mean when a website appears on a domain, there's no way anyone knows until a search engine spiders it. search engines don't share that information.

so can you find recently spidered sites?

or could you get recently registered domains and build a spider to crawl them daily?

How often are these domain lists updated and how accessible are they?

there's loads of websites stat sites around but again depends when they index the new site.
What exactly are you aiming to do/sell?

i just want to find new business data in the UK. if i find sites that are just opened live... they are probably new

Probably not the best way the reason is the sites available wont allow the level of filtering you need to get to just business websites also the amount of domains created daily is large.


Why not scrape yelp/google maps and then have software that checks the website linked to the business listing against one of the whois websites that will give you registration date of the domain.

pretty much doing what you want

1. would you know how to do that?
2. Is there a way to find the newest added pages to Facebook?

1. yes I do, what ever scraping tool your using program a extra step to go to the whois sites (google theres a few).
You will need proxies for the whois as they ban fast.
If you don't have any existing scraping tools and get your applications built, I would budget from £250-£650 for a fully working multithread windows application that scrapes yell or google maps and check whois with proxy support. odesk and freelancer are sites for this kind of jobs the lower price range expect less experienced people to bid at and is a risk.

This would be able to process several thousand business a day leaving you with the handful you require.



2.there was a few years ago not sure how you would do this now,youtube may have answers.
