Non-existent domain (NXD) queries may be monitored to determine if a keyword is included in NXD queries for a brand top level domain (TLD). When a predetermined number of NXD queries have been received for a brand domain that include the keyword, an action may be initiated. The action may be related to the registration of a new domain for the brand domain including the keyword.

NXD query monitor

Methods and systems are disclosed for assessing an identifier. The method comprises receiving a string of characters making up the identifier and determining a keyboard type for a keyboard. The method further comprises calculating, by a calculator module, a typeability score for the identifier based on the string of characters and the keyboard type, wherein the typeability score signifies a difficulty of typing the identifier on the keyboard type. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises determining a finger positioning corresponding to a position of a typer's fingers on the keyboard, and the typeability score is further based on the finger positioning. In some embodiments, the finger positioning is based on the typer's typing habits.

Evaluating typeability of domain names

A method for providing Internet domain name suggestions includes parsing a web page; obtaining at least one keyword from the parsing, generating a first query from the at least one keyword; and determining, based at least on the first query, if at least one name suggestion is available. The method also includes, if at least one name suggestion is available, generating at least one domain name suggestion based at least on the first query and displaying the at least one domain name suggestion.

Dynamic client side name suggestion service

Methods and systems for generating and authenticating barcodes and in particular generating secure barcodes are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method, performed by a certificate authority for creating a trusted content, comprises receiving, via a receiver, a target content and verifying the target content to determine whether the target content is safe or appropriate. Further, the method comprises, based on a result of the verifying, generating and storing, in a storage medium, response data; generating, via a processor, and storing in the storage medium an identifier corresponding to the response data; generating, via the processor, resolution data, the resolution data including the identifier and an address of the certificate authority; and transmitting, via a transmitter, the resolution data as the trusted content.

Secure barcodes

Methods and systems are disclosed for assessing an identifier. The method comprises receiving, via an interface, a string of characters making up the identifier and determining a keyboard type for a keyboard. The method further comprises calculating, by a calculator module, a typeability score for the identifier based on the string of characters and the keyboard type, wherein the typeability score signifies a difficulty of typing the identifier on the determined keyboard type. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises determining a finger positioning corresponding to a position of a typer's fingers on the keyboard, and the typeability score is further based on the finger positioning. In some embodiments, the finger positioning is based on the typer's typing habits.
