Abstract

Systems and methods of the present invention allow for providing suggested domain names on webpages. A webpage is placed on a website associated with an original domain name. A domain name module generates suggested domain names based on the properties of the webpage (e.g. webpage content and keywords), and/or based on the properties of the original domain name (e.g. domain name itself), and/or based on the properties of a network connection to the webpage (e.g. search terms and user's geographical location). Suggested domain names are displayed on the webpage. A user visiting the webpage may notice an appealing domain name among the suggested domain names. Then the user may register, purchase, or backorder it. The invention may be used as a marketing technique for registration, sale, or resale of the domain names.
