Abstract

A domain name registration service is described that identifies a domain name source, identifies domain name candidates from the domain name source, and automatically registers any available candidates as domain names. A domain name source may be any source of information from which a set of alphanumeric (and possibly non-ASCII) characters can be acquired. Once candidate domain names have been registered by the domain name service, they may be used by the registrant or offered to third parties. Since such uses may generate revenue for the registrant, such uses may be referred to as 'monetization' of the automatically registered domain names.
