Snatching About-To-Expire Domains

MadMax · 2005-07-07, 05:08 PM

Who do you guys use? Who's the best? There's an awesome mainstream domain name about to expire off of an 8 year regsitration that I've just fucking GOT to have.

go for it

Beware! I bought one and it turned out it was banned in google. If you can check it first then cool but be careful. After well over a year this domain I have is still not in google and I havent done anything wrong seo wise.

You sure the domain won't just go into registrar-lock? I know any domain I've owned for over two years they usually give me a 60-90 day lock after it expires so I can retreive it.

Btw I used to own a few pr7's I snatched up, they are now PR2. Google stopped counting the high PR incoming links.

I'm not worried about PR...I want it for the domain itself. It's a great, short domain name that's currently no DNS no site and due to expire after 8 years. I've bought expired domains, and there's a 60 or 90 redemption period, but since there's not even a DNS entry for this thing I'm pretty confident it won't be renewed. I'm just looking for the best company to go through in order to snatch it the instant it becomes available.

Leon · 2005-07-07, 06:37 PM

so just go backorder it

Linkster · 2005-07-07, 08:23 PM

Id try snapnames - usually pretty good - one important factor is who the current registrar is - some have their own little backorder systems that they kinda give preference to before the hold period is up

Just make sure it is not blacklisted first. I remember someone recently buying a domain and THEN checking the blacklist. The note was something like "never, ever remove this domain from the list". LOL!

I'd backorder the domain at pool and snapnames , they both very good and if the domain doesn't go to auction it may cost you only 60 bucks

Smutferret · 2005-07-09, 02:45 AM

Has anyone used the backorder at www.whois.sc? Is it worth using or should I use one of the sites listed earlier in this thread?

There's a couple of domains I've had my eye on for sometime that are going to come due soon. I've never backordered a domain before but I might give it a shot...

If I remember correctly whois.sc uses snapnames - just a different interface for their service

MadMax · 2005-07-09, 10:33 AM

Well, the domain I want is currently with network solutions, so I've gone the SnapNames route since they're in bed with NS. Let's hope it works out

I REALLY want this domain, but I don't want to stir the pot by contacting the current regsitrant. All the variants of it have already gone through the lifecycle and become BS search pages.
