Long story short, my national domain registry decided to release expired domains at random periods of time the day they are due to be dropped. U can figure that I cant stay in front of my PC all day and refresh whois. Is there any way I can "ping" the domains or the dns in order to find out when this domains get dropped. Is there any online service or standalone software that can ping this domains and warn me when it became available?

I'm using SB to check the domains in question but I'm not pleased with the results.

Also if a bot creator can make a bot that can do the above, i`m interested in buying. Thanks
 
I think there are actually tools to do that, but a bot would be super easy to make for it in UBot. It could even text you or send you an email when you're done. Here's an example:

If you grab a copy of UBot Standard and I'll send you the bot, gratis :)
 
I'm interested in what your saying here. I'm trying to track expired domains to their original source and get around auctions. Checking the entire whois database for availability to register seems to be the most direct way. Is this right? I am using a service right now that is giving me expired domains with authority but it's still more expensive than I'd Like. I have to assume that they are scraping the whois directory right?

Looks good but checking domains like that will result in captcha check and the bot will stop working. I need a bot that can ping the domains at 5-10 second intervals. Of course captcha can be implemented in the bot but from my experience simple bots work better. I have a copy of ubot. If u can make a bot in ubot that can do all the above i'm willing to pay. If u give it to me for free I will donate some money to a good cause in your name:). I'm waiting your answer.

Exactly. Scrapping whois data is the most productive way of finding good domains but it is not easy to do. For generic domains its easy because the data is publicly available but for the domain extensions I'm interested is pretty difficult .

How can a backlink submission tool from 2010 can do the above?

I use SB to check the domains but it is very annoying because I have to divide my attention between to monitors.

Any other ideas?

You asked for a pinging tool in your title so he suggested a tool that can (assumedly) ping your website. I don't think he understood what you meant by pinging.
 
Possibly. Or he wanted to increase his post count. Cheers.
