🌐 Sedo Domain Auctions Scraper

🚀 Pull every live Sedo expiring-domain auction in seconds. Filter by TLD, reserve price, traffic, length, and end time. No API key, no Sedo account, no manual CSV wrangling.

The Sedo Domain Auctions Scraper turns the live Sedo expiring-domain auction roster into a clean, listing-level dataset. Every record is one ongoing or upcoming auction with the domain name, the reserve price in USD, the start and end times in UTC, the monthly traffic estimate, the TLD, the second-level domain length, and three machine-readable flags for IDN, hyphenated, and numeric domains. The scraper hits the official Sedo auction export so the data is identical to what shows up on the Sedo "Auctions ending soon" page, parsed into stable JSON columns.

Sedo is one of the largest domain aftermarkets in the world and its expiring-domain auctions move thousands of names every week. Pulling that inventory by hand means clicking through the Sedo search UI page by page, which is slow and breaks the moment Sedo tweaks its layout. This Actor turns the entire roster into a single dataset in under a second of compute. Domain investors get a fresh shortlist of flip candidates every morning, brand owners get early warning when a misspelled lookalike of their mark hits auction, and SEO researchers get a clean view of expiring names with measurable historical traffic ready for outreach.

Target Audience	Primary Use Cases
Domain investors and flippers	Surface short, high-traffic .com names with low reserve prices before the market notices
Brand managers and trademark teams	Monitor expiring lookalike and misspelled-mark domains for protective acquisition
SEO professionals and link builders	Find expiring domains with backlinks and traffic for 301 migrations or PBN candidates
Domain brokers and marketplaces	Generate fresh inventory feeds and outbound contact lists from a single daily run

📋 What the Sedo Domain Auctions Scraper does

• 🔍 Live auction roster. Every run pulls the current Sedo expiring-domain auction export, which Sedo refreshes daily, so the results are always in sync with the public Sedo search UI.
• 🌐 TLD filters. Restrict the roster to specific top-level domains (com, net, org, info, online, shop, xyz, and 14 more) with a single multi-select input.
• 💵 Price, traffic, and length filters. Pass minPrice, maxPrice, minTraffic, minLength, and maxLength to narrow the roster to the kind of names you actually want to buy.
• 🚫 Quality filters. Exclude hyphenated names, numeric names, or IDN (non-ASCII) names with one checkbox each.
• 📅 Date filters. Use endsBefore, endsAfter, and the includeEnded toggle to grab auctions ending today, this weekend, or any window inside the seven-day Sedo export.
• ↕️ Eight sort orders. Sort by ending soonest, ending latest, price, traffic, length, or alphabetical so the most useful rows land at the top of the dataset.

Each record carries the domain name, the TLD, the second-level domain length, three boolean attribute flags (IDN, hyphen, numbers), the reserve price in USD, the monthly traffic estimate, ISO-8601 start and end timestamps, the auction type label, the Sedo details URL for that listing, the source export URL, and an ISO-8601 scrape timestamp.

💡 Why it matters: Sedo's expiring auctions are a free, time-sensitive signal of which names are about to change hands, but the source is a UTF-16 CSV with European-style separators that most scraping stacks choke on. This Actor collapses that into one clean row per auction so you can run SQL, pandas, or Airtable filters against it directly.

📊 Data fields

Each record includes: auctionType, currency, detailsUrl, domainLength, domainName, endTime, hasHyphen, hasNumbers, isIdn, reservePrice, scrapedAt, sourceUrl, startTime, tld, traffic. All 15 field names come from a real production run, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.

⚠️ Good to Know: The Sedo export contains the next seven days of expiring auctions in a single snapshot, refreshed daily. A full unfiltered pull is usually around 12,000 live listings, so do not be surprised by big result counts. Reserve prices are quoted in USD regardless of language cookie. Traffic is Sedo's own monthly visitor estimate, with 0 meaning Sedo reports no measurable traffic.
