Typosquatting generator
Invent responsible defensive lists faster than handwriting every missed keystroke variant.
We only permute the text before the first dot. Omit `www` and nested subdomains for cleaner brand-level coverage. Full URLs paste fine; we discard paths automatically.
What this deliberately does not do
BenOpt does not harvest live traffic, guess passwords, or probe infrastructure beyond polite DNS lookups. This page exists because founders routinely buy typo domains to protect legitimate customers finding the wrong tab.
The optional scanner calls the same resolver stack as our bulk checker, which means NXDOMAIN-heavy paths look “available,” while parked-but-registered bundles still behave like taken names. Confirm money decisions with RDAP (RDAP lookup) or your registrar overlay.
How deterministic generation keeps you sane
- Neighbor swaps: Two adjacent characters interchange, reflecting fat-finger slips.
- Deletes: Drops one glyph when anchors stay long enough to stay readable.
- Doubles: Inserts duplicated letters resembling sticky keys.
- Adjacent keys: Swaps glyphs for nearby QWERTY targets so you mimic hardware mistakes.
We cap how many guesses export at once so spreadsheets stay workable. Duplicate strings dedupe silently.
Use exported lists ethically. Unauthorized cybersquatting or spoofing violates policy at most registrars and can create trademark exposure. Pair this helper with counsel when budgets grow serious.
