Domain name

[Greenman]

The ownership of a domain name I want is going to expire soon, is there any way to preorder it so I get it as soon as it's available?

I know some domain companies have services like that. GoDaddy has like a backorder for domain names and will attempt to grab it when it expires.

Some registrars will auction the domain name, so trying to backorder it won't help. Godaddy is one that does that.

Looks like it's 60 bux just to sign up for the service. That really blows.

Heh.

Snatch.

Which domain registrar is it currently registered with?

It will cost you at least $18.99

That sounds like 1and1.com all I have to say is good luck!

www.snapnames.com is good but costs a little more.

It looks like they hold the name for thirty days after it expires to give the first owner a grace period to renew it. It's not that big of a deal, I didn't really want the name, I just didn't want the currant owner to have it anymore. Spiteful of me, probably best that I don't get it.
