Snapnames question

[vip-ip]

How often does snapnames check expired domains? Once every minute? Every 5 minutes?

Say, I backorder test.com which expires tomorrow; there's a very inprobable chance that I will catch it, but how much time does it take SnapNames to acquire a domain?

When you search for names at SnapNames, it will tell you their exact drop dates. SnapNames will acquire the name (e.g. test.com) the day it drops and then begin the 3 day auction.

Duh, that's what a backorder is :tu:
I mean, there is never an exact TIME as to wehn they drop, so how often does Snap Names check if it was dropped? every minute? second? hour?

I suppose that for the moment, the status shown in your Snapnames account, for the domain name test.com is "pending delete"...
Tomorrow (at +/- 6 PM GMT European time until +/- 9 PM) it will show "acquiring name".

At +/- 9 PM, if Snapnames get it, there will be an auction, and that's where it really begins... Of course, you're not alone to want that name...
And of course, you have to 'fight 'against' saggydimes, vaxis and so on...
If you don't know them now, you will learn to know them for the next 4 days... trust me :td:
