Say in DNS if a domain is for sale

Only if a domain is for sale, say so with a TXT record at _for-sale. Otherwise publish nothing.

By Erik Bergstedt, Agent Wranglers. Updated .

How to do it

If the domain is for sale, add a TXT record at _for-sale.example.com, as the draft standard describes. If not, add nothing.

Example

_for-sale.example.com.  3600  IN  TXT  "v=FORSALE1;"
dig +short TXT _for-sale.example.com

How to check

A DNS query for _for-sale returns your intent, or nothing.
