Regarding the timeline of the domains in our system, the following information should clarify this for you: On the expiration date we attempt to renew if the auto-renew is enabled. We attempt 2 more renewals, on the 5th and 12th day The name is parked on day 5 to alert the customer On day 12 if the renewal has not been processed, the name goes into a 30 day redemption period. The name can be renewed at the regular rate up until the end of day 18. On day 19 the renewal would also incur the $80.00 redemption fee. On day 26 the name enters the expired domains auction where it remains until day 36. If there are no bids the name goes into the fire sale auction on day 37 where it remains until day 42. On day 43: If there is an auction winner the name is awarded to them. If there is no auction winner, the name goes to a backorder in our system should one exist. If there is neither an auction winner or a backorder, the name drops to the registry for 30 days plus deletion. Of course, as per our legal agreements these terms are subject to change at any time. Your concerns regarding the amount of information pertaining to backorders placed through reseller accounts has been submitted to our Quality Assurance Team for review. While we cannot guarantee what might be ultimately changed, or when this might occur, we can assure you that many of the modifications to our systems/site/products are the direct result of the feedback we receive from our customers. Additionally, as a goodwill gesture for any inconveniences we have renewed your hosting account for one year free of charge in addition to the refunds. Again, please accept our most sincere apologies for any incorrect or conflicting information you may have received. We want you to know we are addressing these matters internally as appropriate and where needed more feedback and training will be provided. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | An interesting read. However, I do want to point out that ALL (GD, BR, and WW) domains go to TDNAM when expired... Now, 2-3 weeks ago there was an interesting occurance. Many domains came onto the market with 17 days on auction.... This process went on for 24-48 hours then stopped. It appears for approximately 2 Days GoDaddy opted for an extended auction period... However, this reverted... either unintentional or intentional, something did happen this month. Good researching and its interesting to hear what Office of the President said. Justin

One other point I would like to make is the fact that it was stated that even if these domains are @ TDNAM and with bids on them that GD WILL ACCEPT a backorder, if no other backorder exists. So when there is no chance for you to catch that domain, GD will still take your | ||||

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | A tad complicated to follow. I'll read it again. But I don't agree with some of the timelines. The Renewal Period is 12 Days. http://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/legal_...G%5FSA#renewal
I've let a lot of domains expire at GoDaddy. Here is my take on the timeline, which is also confirmed by their ToS. 0-12 Renewal Grace Period (can be up to 17 days) The domain goes to TDNAM after the Renewal Grace Period ends. +30 Redemption Grace Period After which the domain sells to the highest bidder at TDNAM* or delete (+5 day Pending Delete) ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=333574 There are occassions when GoDaddy keep the domain if it doesn't sell. And sometimes they delete after another 30-35 days (not sure of the exact timing). * In practice it's already sold and the buyer is just waiting the 14 days before they can receive the domain.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I did notice about a week ago that the waiting period to take ownership of a TDNAM win is now one weel instead of two as it was before. That should be less chance of winning an auction and then losing to a late redemption. however, the large NNN.us case this week is counter to that theory.

![]() | Response from GoDaddy Customer Support on Value of Backorder and TDNAM First, here's my question to support: I'm looking for further clarification: I've paid for a domain backorder on a domain registered at GoDaddy. When this domain drops, and GoDaddy acquires it, will I become the new registrant of the domain? According to GoDaddy Customer Support, all domains registered with GoDaddy that expires will go into TDNAM. Why would I want to spend $18.99 for a backorder on a domain registered at GoDaddy that will be going into public auction? I understand that my $18.99 would automatically be placed as a first bid on the domain, but this has absolutely no value to me because anybody can place a bid on the domain. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=333574 -------- Here is GoDaddy's response: Thank you for contacting Online Support. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. The backorder does more then just put a bid on the domain name, if the domain goes to TDNAM there was also monitoring included in the purchase you have made. The monitoring and the backorder can be used on any domain name even third party domains. This means you can watch any domain to see when it is available to try to capture with the backorder or if any other changes are made. Since the domain that you want goes onto the bidding system and you are automatically placed as the first bid this will make a chance for you to grab the domain name. If in fact you do lose the domain to another person you will still have the credit to use for a backorder on other domains. The backorder is a great service as it in fact is not well known about with many domain buyers. If anything I believe that you have the upper hand with a backorder and apologize if you do not agree. We respect your opinion and thank you for your business. --------

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I'd forgotten about this post. It makes a great read the second time around too ![]() ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=333574 This new response from GoDaddy is saying that your backorder IS placed as the 1st backorder on the domain. Previous communications to airwav were silent on that point. That silence implied that the backorder wasn't place as the 1st bid on the domain but was only activated before the fire sale. @airwav - To answer your question There is no point in placing a GoDaddy backorder on ANY domain. Even GD/BW/WWD registered domains which ALL go to TDNAM.I think the GD policy needs to be clarified on whether backordered GD/BR/WWD registered domains have the backorder placed as the 1st bid on the domain or not. I've asked my account exec.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Ok. My account rep said that provided you place the backorder on the domain prior to the start of the auction, $10 of your backorder will be placed as the first bit on the domain. If you placed a backorder on a domain whilst it is under auction, then provided nobody bids on the domain, your backorder will be successful before the $5 fire sale. |

Although not always the smart move, it stands to reason that someone who wants a name, but doenst want to stimulate bidding on it (or highlight it to other domainers) could use this method. ????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=333574 Other than that, a complete waste...

Will the backorder be successful before pending delete, or will the backorder compete with others when the domain drops? |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | I'm not sure that actually answers my question Mark. Are you saying that backordering a GoDaddy domain which has already passed thru the tdnam auctions will NOT be captured before it goes into pending delete? It seems quite silly if true. But then there are many silly things in this life. |
