Description

Method for searching and registering multi-domain over the internet}

The present invention relates to a multi-domain search and registration method on the Internet. More specifically, when a user wants to search / register a plurality of domains, the user designates a common keyword for a character (word) constituting a plurality of domains. The present invention relates to a multi-domain search and registration method on the Internet in which individual words are input (designated) and combined again by a combination method to collectively process a search / registration work in a quick and timely manner.

A domain means that in order for us to call someone, the phone must be connected to the telephone network and we must know the person's phone number.

Similarly, in order for a computer to communicate with its own addressing system, the computer must be connected to the Internet and know the address of the computer, and the address of the computer must be a numeric address (eg 210.102.59.102, 210.102.59.50, etc.). ) And two addresses expressed in English letters (eg www.nownuri.net, www.yahoo.co.kr, etc.). Addresses expressed in numbers are separated by dots and displayed in four steps.

Each number separated by a dot can use a number from 0 to 255, and the address represented by the number should not be duplicated worldwide. These numbers represented by the number are referred to as an Internet public Internet Protocol (IP) address. .

However, when Internet users use these numerical addresses to communicate with other computers, they are hard to understand and difficult to remember, so they are written in English instead of numerical addresses (the actual addresses of computers). Address available This is called the Internet domain name.

The Internet domain name enables communication with any computer connected to the Internet. To search for such a domain name, a domain registrar or domain registration service site for domain name registration (cancellation) is searched.

However, in the case of the domain registrar or the domain registration service site, only the pre-acquisition of the specific domain name entered in the search of the domain name and the registerable related information of the searched specific domain are displayed, and the similar domains of the searched domain name are displayed. Since registration information is not displayed, it was difficult to identify the registration status of similar or related domains.

In particular, if you want to collectively register a plurality of domains, one domain must be registered one by one as described above, the operation is very inconvenient, and it takes a long time until all the domains are registered. There is a problem that can not secure the desired domain due to time delay.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to enable a user to collectively search a plurality of similar domains through a combination of keywords and a plurality of word lists, and a search method thereof. Not only does it facilitate verification, it also shortens the search time, makes it possible to more clearly understand the search / registration results, and efficiently handles the process of searching and registering domains. Is to provide a multi-domain search and registration method on the Internet.

In order to achieve the above object, the multi-domain search and registration method on the Internet according to the present invention comprises: an acquisition step of receiving keyword and word information of a search domain from a user; Combining the keywords and the words in a predetermined manner to form a search target domain name; A scoring step of searching the domain names and scoring the resulting domain names by a predetermined method; A sorting step of sorting the search result of the derived domain name before displaying the search result of the domain name on the monitor; A display step of displaying the searched result through the sorting step on a screen for the user to check; When the user selects the domain name displayed on the screen arbitrarily, the registration is performed by registering the domain name by transmitting it to the domain administrator server or the domain registrar server.

In addition, the combination step according to the present invention is a keyword + word, word + keyword, keyword + '-' + word, word + '-' + keyword, keyword + (keyword * n), (keyword * n) + word, word A domain name is formed by connecting keywords, words, and '-' in a combination of + (keyword * n).

In addition, the scoring step according to the present invention is scored based on the list of added words, the number of letters constituting the domain, the domain input convenience of the keyword, the domain input convenience of the mobile communication device, the domain memorization convenience.

In addition, the sorting step according to the present invention scores scored through the scoring step Sorting, sorting by registration or not, sorting in descending or ascending order of the total number of characters constituting the domain, sorting in alphabetical order, and also transmitting to a user's terminal or terminal processor according to the present invention. It is desirable to convert the resulting data into secondary results according to the user's needs and connection conditions, and wrap or transform the data into appropriate data for the user to use.

Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram of a multi-domain search / registration system according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, the multi-domain search / registration system includes a user system 100, a multi-domain search / registration server 200, a domain registration agency server (organization) 300, and a domain holding / management server (organization). (400) is made in conjunction with each other through a communication network 500, such as wired, wireless Internet.

The user system 100 accesses the multi-domain search / registration server 200 to create a predetermined keyword and word list, and requests a collective search for a plurality of domains by a combination thereof. The computer terminal 110 for requesting registration of an appropriate value.

The user system 100 is a computer system including a web browsing means, a wired or wireless communication modem, a processing means, a display means, and the like. A general PC computer, PDA, Internet phone, web TV, IMT-2000, portable terminal, PCS terminal, etc. can be used.

The keyword refers to a character / word having a relatively important meaning (or location) among a plurality of characters / words constituting a domain to be searched / registered by the user, and the word refers to a character except a keyword among domain names to be searched. Or refers to a word.

In other words, if the domain name to be searched is beststock.com, estock.com, stocknews.com, etc., stock becomes the main word, and stock, best, e, and news is added to the keyword to form the domain. This set of words is referred to as a word list.

The domain holding / management server (organization) 200 is an organization that manages and manages domain names on the Internet by database and operates through server devices on the Internet.

The domain registrar server (organization) 300 is a server agency that provides various web pages for domain registration on the Internet and acts for domain registration of users.

In the multi-domain search / registration system 200 according to the present invention, a server means services a domain registration to a user through such a domain registrar agency server 300, or is directly linked with the domain possession / management authority server 400. You can run a domain registration service.

The multi-domain search / registration server 200 is a server apparatus for performing a domain search and registration service to a user on the Internet. The network connection module 210 transmits data. Module 220, server database 240, and engine main process 231, module management module 232, query completion module 233, result analysis module 234, domain registration module 235, user information processing The program module 230 includes a module 236, a data change module 237, and a data loading module 238.

The communication network connection module 210 is a communication means for setting a connection method between servers, a user terminal or a user terminal processor, generating a communication line, and controlling the connection with them.

The data transmission module 220 is a device for transmitting and receiving a predetermined data, such as the user terminal 100 or the domain management server 400, the registration server 300 through the communication path formed by the network connection module 210 to be.

The server database 240 is a user information DB 241 for storing and managing user's member information and authentication information, a file system 242 or DB for classifying and storing data obtained from a user and a server device or the engine itself. System 243.

The engine main process 231 is main processing means for executing the search and registration of the multi-domain according to the present invention by controlling the various modules according to a series of processing procedures.

The module management module 232 is a module that resides in a system memory and loads necessary modules, and manages the various software modules by the operation control of the engine main process.

The data loading module 238 is a module for loading data generated in a search / registration engine or obtained from a user terminal into a server database.

Since the data loading module 238 is designed for a system file system or a DBMS system, the data loading module 238 operates as a separate process from the multi-domain search / registration system, operates independently of the system, and rewrites even when loaded into a new system. Can be used.

In addition, the user information processing module 236 is connected to the user information DB 241 to manage the user authentication and the line connection with the user terminal 100, and also a predetermined screen (information) to the user terminal Configure and provide a and process various request information obtained through this.

The query completion module 233 is a module for generating a query to be sent to the domain management server 400 or the registrar server 300 in the 'domain search / registration engine'. Even if a new type is added, only the relevant module can be written and used separately, so the system can be configured independently of the change of the system environment.

The result analysis module 234 is a module for sending a query to the domain administrator server 400 in a 'domain search / registration engine' and analyzing the data values obtained as a result. Create a score table or sort and express the result in a predetermined order.

The data conversion module 237 searches / domains in the 'domain search / registration engine'. Before registering and transmitting the result to the user terminal 100 or the terminal process 100, the resulting module converts the data value into a secondary result in accordance with the user's request and connection. That is, since the value derived from the 'engine' is inappropriate for the user to use, the data value is wrapped or transformed in accordance with the terminal 100 or the terminal process 100 of the user.

As the domain registration module 235 requests a user to select a specific domain name from among domain search results and registers it, the domain registration module 235 processes the registration through the domain registration server 300 or the domain holding / management server 400. Module.

Meanwhile, a method of collectively searching and registering multi-domains using such a system is performed as follows.

That is, the present invention provides a predetermined search screen to the user terminal 100 and receives the keyword and word list information to form a domain to search through, and combines the keyword and word list information in a predetermined manner. Configuring search target domain names, accessing a domain holding / management server on the Internet, searching for registration of the domain names, and obtaining search result information according to the above; Or assigning a score to each search domain name based on a score table, arranging the scored search result information in a predetermined order and transmitting the result to a terminal or a terminal process of the user, and the user searching the domain. Select a specific domain from among them and request the corresponding domain information It includes the step of registering by transmitting to the retention / management server.

The obtaining of the keyword and the word list is a step of providing a search request screen (information) of a predetermined form to the user terminal 100 and obtaining a predetermined keyword and word list from the user, wherein the keyword field and the word list are displayed on the screen. A separate field is provided to allow you to select or enter a method (described below) that combines the keyword and the word list to form a domain to be searched, and can also be set to higher levels such as com, net, org, com, etc. It is configured to select a domain.

In addition, a user may designate a score table (or scoring criteria) configuration method, a data sorting method, a media display method, and the like which will be described below through the screen (information) provided by the search / registration server 200. This information is stored and managed in the user information DB 241 as a unique ID of the user.

In addition, the domain combining step is a step of combining a plurality of search target domain list by combining the keywords and word list information obtained from a user in a predetermined manner, embodiments of such a combination method are as follows.

That is, (1) keyword + word,

    (2) words + keywords,

    (3) keywords + '-' + words,

    (4) words + '-' + keywords,

   (5) keyword + (keyword * n) (where n is the number of duplicates of the keyword and is any positive integer),

    (6) (keyword * n) + word,

    (7) word + (keyword * n),

    (8) Other combinations created by users.

Such a combination method can be arbitrarily selected and set by the user, and the set information is managed as user information, and the corresponding program module 240 connects the input keywords and the word list in the set combination method to list a plurality of search target domains. Automatically configures and databases it.

On the other hand, there are three types of domains: first generation domain, which is an IP address method, second generation domain, which is an English domain method, third generation domain, which is a multilingual and Korean domain, and fourth generation domain, which is a keyword-type domain method. However, the multi-domain search / registration method according to the present invention should be appropriately applied according to the progress (type) of these domains.

The following describes the embodiments of the second generation to fourth generation domain except the first generation.

A. Second Generation Domains-A hierarchical concept that uses a '.' A dot character is used to separate the best domain and the next higher domain, a keyword and a word are combined, and each top or next domain designated by the user is combined and searched.

* Application-If the domain you want to search is stocknews.com, estock.co.kr

 Keywords-stock

 Word List-news, e

 Top-level domain-com,

 Second-Level Domains-co

 Combination example-stocknews.com, stocknews.com

      stocke.com, stocknews.com

     newstock.com, newstock.com

     estock.com, estock.co.kr

N. Third Generation Domain- A hierarchical concept differs from the second generation domain in that the letters corresponding to the name of the domain are multilingual except for the letters constituting the top and second domains in the domain. As in the case of the second generation domain, the keyword is divided into a top-level domain and a next-level domain, a keyword and a word are combined, and a search is performed by combining the top-level domain and the next-level domain.

* Application Example-If you want to search domain 'Hangul Love.com', 'Hangul Live.com',

 Keywords-Hangul

 Word List-Love, Long live

 Top-level domain-com,

 Second-Level Domains-co

 Combination Example-Hangul Love.com, Hangul Love.co.kr

         Love han.com, love han.com

         Hangeul live.com, Hangeul live.co.kr

         Long live Korean.com, long live Korean.com

C. 4th generation domain-There is no hierarchical concept of 2nd and 3rd generation, so the search is performed by combining only keywords and words.

 Application example-If the domain you want to search is 'Hangul Association' or 'Hangul Love Society',

 Keywords-Hangul

 Word List-Associations, Love Associations

 Association example-Hangul Association, Hangul Love Association

In this manner, a combination of keywords and words according to the present invention is executed for each domain type.

Therefore, the multi-domain search / registration system according to the present invention can search by easily combining keywords and word lists for all domains without being limited to a specific domain type.

On the other hand, after the user accesses the website of the search / registration server 200 and undergoes predetermined membership registration and authentication, the user configures and searches the score table (or scoring criteria) as well as the domain combination method as described above. A result sorting method, a media display method, and the like are set and managed, which will be described below.

The score table means that the 'search / registration engine' searches the domain and returns the result. A set of rules that are the scoring criteria when displaying the scores of derived domains, which can be created and edited by the user and edited or reused already stored.

As an example of such scoring rules,

  (1) addition word list,

  (2) the number of letters that make up the domain,

  (3) PC keyboard domain input ease,

  (4) ease of domain input in mobile communication devices (cellular phones, mobile phones, PCS, PDAs),

  (5) domain memorization convenience,

  (6) Other user-written rules.

The user may adjust the detailed score set value for each word or letter according to the basic set value (weighted value) by the server or as required by the server.

In addition, the search result sorting method is a set of methods for sorting the derived domain search results before searching for a domain that is a 'search / registration engine' and displaying the result, and a user writes it on his or her login terminal screen. You can edit it, manage it, and reuse it.

This sort of search results,

  (1) sort by scores scored with the 'domain score table',

  (2) sort by registration availability,

  (3) descending / ascending sorting of the total number of characters constituting the domain,

  (4) sort alphabetically,

  (5) There are other methods written by users.

In addition, the media display method is a set of methods by which a 'search / registration engine' performs a search and sorts the domains by the 'search result sorting method' and then displays the result to the user. You can select more than one to set or edit and save and manage them for later reuse.

This media display method

  (1) user terminal screen display;

  (2) send to your email address;

  (3) output to your printer;

  (4) transfer to mobile communication devices,

  (5) output to user's terminal speaker by voice,

  (6) can be selected and set among methods such as saving to a user terminal as a file.

On the other hand, the domain list retrieval step is connected to the domain holding / management server 400 of the information of a plurality of domain list configured by a combination of a keyword and a word list as described above to search for its registration, etc. This step is to get the data and database it.

At this time, the search / registration server 200 obtains predetermined domain exclusion information from the user and searches for unnecessary combination domains based on these information. Domain filtering may be performed.

In addition, the search domain scoring step is a step of assigning a predetermined score to each of the searched domains according to the configuration of the score table set as described above, that is, the scoring criterion, wherein the user is selected from among a plurality of combined domains Optimal domains can be identified first.

The search result sorting / displaying step may be sequentially arranged according to a search result sorting method previously designated by a user or automatically set by a server as described above, and then the search result may be set by the display method set by the user in the media display method. It is a step to provide a variety of terminal systems such as personal PC, cellular phone, PCS, PDA, IMT-2000, Bluetooth, WAP.

In addition, the domain registration step may be performed after the user confirms the displayed search result, and the domain holding / management server 400 or the domain registrar server (400) may be registered as the user requests registration of the domains that can be registered or optimized. In step 300, the corresponding domains are registered.

In this case, the search / registration server 200 may also provide a service for managing the use rights and payment for the registered domain.

Hereinafter, a process in which the multi-domain search and registration method as described above is processed through the system illustrated in FIG. 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 6.

2 is a flowchart illustrating a user access and domain search request process according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 2, in order to obtain predetermined search request information from a user, the search / registration server 200 provides a predetermined web page to the connected user terminal 100, and the engine main process ( After the operation 231, the module management module 232 loads the module according to the user's request or processing process (S10).

In addition, the user accesses the website of the server 200 through various terminal systems 100 or terminal processes (S11), and thus the network connection module 210 generates a connection channel for the user. (S12) The user information processing module 236 reads information on the user from the user information DB 241 and confirms the membership through the user's ID, password, etc. according to a predetermined authentication procedure (S13). The display information (login permission, or login impossibility) accordingly is displayed to the user through the data transmission module 220 (S14).

Accordingly, if login is normally performed, the next step is executed, and if login is not allowed, the process is repeated again from the step S12.

At this time, when the user is logged in, the user information processing module 236 checks the user's existing setting information (combination method, score table configuration, result sorting method, etc.) from the user information DB 241 (S16). Information is transmitted to the user terminal 100 through the data transmission module 220 to be displayed on the web page activated according to the user's use. (S17) The user checks the existing setting information and displays the contents thereof. It will be edited or set.

Further, at the request of the user, an input screen window or a web page for the search target domain is configured and transmitted to the user terminal 100 (S18). The user sets predetermined information (keyword and word list) for the search target domain. Information circulation, etc.), and proceeds with the circular waiting process (S22).

The processing of this circular waiting process proceeds as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 3.

First, the network connection module 210 maintains and waits for the connection channel until the user transmits predetermined keyword and word list information (or information to be obtained) (S221).

When the user inputs predetermined information, the server 200 determines whether connection request information is input (S222). At this time, when disconnection is requested (S223), the communication network connection module 210 determines the The connection channel is released and the resultant status is returned to the parent process (S224). If the user does not request the disconnection, the user inputs the information to the parent process and terminates the current process, thereby performing a series of waiting processes. It is executed (S225).

When a keyword and a word list are input from the user by such a series of processes, the server 200 combines the keyword and the word list by referring to the setting information of the combination method stored in the user information DB 241. You will construct a list of search domains.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a domain search process according to the present invention.

When the search target domain list is configured as described above, the server 200 creates a query for the domain list through the query completion module 233 (S23).

In addition, a communication line is generated with the domain holding / management server 400 through the communication network connection module 210 (S24) when a communication line is formed, the data transmission module 220 queries a query for the domain list. By transmitting the request to the domain holding / management server 400, such as whether or not the registration of each domain (S25).

In addition, the search result received from the domain holding and management server 400 is analyzed through the result analysis module 234, and the information structure according to the storage information is stored and managed in the user information DB 241 of the server database 240. (S26)

This domain search and search result receiving process is performed sequentially or collectively for all the domains in the search target list (S27).

When a search is performed for all domains in the list, the data conversion module 237 converts the stored result information (S28), and the converted result information is stored in the file system 242 through the data loading module 238. Or store in the DB system 243 (S29).

When the series of searching processes is completed, the communication network connection module 210 releases the connection with the domain holding / management server 400 (S30).

5 is a flowchart illustrating a search result display and domain registration process according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5, the search / registration server 200 provides a search result to a user. In displaying, first, the stored result data is assigned a score according to a scoring criterion of the set domain score table, and information about the database is databased (S32).

In addition, the search results are sorted sequentially according to the result sorting method (S33). After determining the method to be transmitted to the user based on the media display method, the search result sorting method and scoring value are transmitted to the user's terminal system 100. To be displayed. (S34)

In addition, after transmitting the screen (information) window for receiving the registration target domain list to the user terminal system 100 (S35) until the registration target domain list is input (S36) described with reference to FIG. It is to wait through the circular waiting process as described above (S39).

When the information on the domain to be registered is obtained from the user, the domain registration module 235 accesses the domain holding / management server 400 to process registration for the corresponding domain (S37).

As such, when the registration for the domains is completed, the network connection module releases the connection channel with the user and terminates the corresponding main process (S38).

6 is a flowchart illustrating a domain registration process according to the present invention in more detail.

As shown in FIG. 6, in order to register a domain requested from a user according to a predetermined procedure, the search / registration server 200 first completes the query. Generate a query word for the registered domains through the module 233 (S40), the domain holding / management authority server 400 or the domain registration server 300 through the network connection module 210 It forms a communication line with (S41).

In addition, the data transmission module 220 transmits the query words to the domain registrar agency server 300 or the domain holding / management authority server 400.

In addition, the result analysis module 234 to analyze the processing result value for the registered domain (S43), the analyzed result data is the file system 242 or DB system through the data loading module 238 It is stored and managed at 243. (S44)

This domain registration process proceeds until all the domains requested to be registered are processed (S45). When the registration process is performed for all domains, the registration result and analysis information are transmitted to the user terminal through the data transmission module 220. (S46)

As such, when the domain registration is completed, the communication network connection module 210 releases the connection with the domain possession / management authority server 400 or the domain registration agency server 300 and provides the result to the parent process. The series of processes ends (S47).

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and various modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

According to the present invention made as described above, it is possible to process the domain name search / registration by creating only a module without changing the existing system, and with one keyword By searching all the similar domain names combined in a batch, effective search and registration can be performed despite various domain types such as English domain type, multilingual domain type, and keyword type domain type.

In addition, by providing collective search and scoring grades by combination, it not only provides user's convenience of search but also saves time and cost according to search / registration, and also facilitates searching for similar domain names that clients do not think about. can do.
