Expired Domains

Hello,

When a domain is going to "Expire and Delete" on a certain date, whats the best way to try and grab it?

Thanks

sadly, i myself never quite picked up the hang of it!

If a name expired and it was going to delete, is there an exact time you should try and reg it? and, isnt this all assuming that absolutely nobody else has backordered it? i would like to know as well, anybody out there?

SIX days after it goes into "Pending Delete" status (check Whois), it should "drop", IMHO. If it's perceived to be of high quality and/or potential , others will surely take notice. Best bet, then, would be to utilize all of the major "drop/backorder services" such as Pool, Snapnames, etc. IMHO.

By the way, it can get quite costly in these aftermarket mechanisms and there is never any guarantee of success either ... plan accordingly, caveat emptor, have fun, be safe, etc.
All the best!

Backorder it is the best way, then youll have a better chance of getting it I think. Pool.com is good for this.
