Nick is on the money! Less is more — your concept is A+ — it's all about the search box and some minor explanation in 25 words or less, don't try and dress that up...

#65Nicely done. Here's a similar site I made previously: http://www.domainjig.com
Beyond the shameless self-promotion I found that getting people to use it would take a lot of work, with lots of alternatives out there that have dedicated teams promoting them. On the positive side, I learned a lot from it; but I never made any significant money from it. If you're comfortable sharing your next steps, I'd be interested to know what you're aiming for with this project.
Good luck!
