I own a small business with the trademark on the name. The .com wasn't initially available, so I took a different extension.
Now the .com is available (since it was deleted a couple of days ago) and I "successfully" backordered it it via Snapnames. There are a couple of other bidders apparently, but this is a niche specific name for which I have the registered trademark for multiple classes - so I feel it's of no value to anyone else. The business is still young and my non .com website doesn't get much traffic - so I feel this .com has little value to anyone but me.
What is the best strategy for winning this auction? I'm completely new to this, since I'm not a domain investor. Do I bid as high as I'm willing to go in the last few minutes (as I would do in an ebay auction)? I'm worried if I put in my maximum bid now, the other auction participants will see that the name has interest and start to bid it up. When should I bid?
Thanks in advance!
