Trying New Domain Software: URLDom

It can sometimes be tricky finding the right software to manage your domain portfolio. Managing things like expiration dates, location of the domain, and other things can often make for a confusing and sometimes unmanageable portfolio. I know a lot of domainers have turned to custom made Microsoft Excel spreadsheets to attempt to manually track things, but I’ve always felt that for a task like this, your best bet is probably some custom made software specifically for domainers porftolios.

With that said, I’m still in the process of trying various types of domain software that are available to see what I like best. Right now I’m using the 14 day free trial to give URLDom a try. According to their website, here is what they have to say about the domain software:

Keep comments, purchases, sales, transactions, income and expenses to yourself instead of publishing it on the web for all the world to see.

Intuitive, easy to use PC desktop application interface lets you enter all pertinent data in seconds. Track your current, expired and sold domain names. Selectively sorts and filters records to your specifications by date purchased, expiration dates, url, category and more.

When you enter a newly purchased domain name to the program, data is simultaneously posted to an expense log. Renewals and transfers are handled in a similar manner. You may access the data file through the main menu and post other expenses related to your business such as advertising, hosting, etc.

• Quickly create printouts from the currently selected record set or customize reports to your liking.
• Automatic expiration reminder report alerts you well in advance to renew or transfer domains.
• Log sales as well as offers you may have received on any of your names.
• Post income from domain name sales, parking, renting, commissions or whatever.
• Complete expense record keeping. View and print history for any given timeframe.
• Total or periodic summary reports of income and expense covering your entire portfolio.
• Predefined reports to create quick lists and summaries of your domains.
• User defined reports where you select the output fields you want to see.
• Contact manager to keep track of your business and personal acquaintances and more…

Once the free trial is over the software will cost $50.00 if I decide to use it.
