Expired domain names hold much value to domainers. An expired domain is a previously registered domain, which was not renewed by the previous order and was deleted and made available for registration again.
Expired domains often offer the domainer existing traffic and in all likelihood
a pagerank, all factors that contribute towards higher resell value of the
domain name.
The problem domainers face is that expired domain names are in high demand and
tens of thousands of domainers are battling to reregister these domain names.
In order to register a domain, which includes expired domains, you need to
register the domain by hand the moment it becomes available. In practise this
would be impossible. There are just too many domainers after expired domains and
are making use of automated services to assist them in catching expired domains.
This section will describe how domainers go about in catching and registering
expired domains. The purpose of this guide is to bring you into the same level
of competition and afford you the opportunity, equal to other domainers , to
catch expiring domain names.
Step 1: Look for Backordering Services
After you have obtained and viewed a list of soon-to-expire domain names and you have decided which you want to attempt to register, we advise that you make use of backordering services. Backordering services are automated services that will attempt to register expired domains on your behalf before someone else has a chance to grab it. There are a number of backordering services on the Internet, some asking fees for this service and others offering free backordering services.
Below is a list of backordering services that do not charging any fees, prior to
successfully registering the expired domain.
Step 2: Register Free Accounts
Now that you have identified the free backordering services, sign up for your free accounts with them.
The majority, if not all, of these services offers free member accounts, which are required if you wish to use their services.
Please note that you will need to have a credit card handy when signing up at
some registrars.
Step 3: Submit Your Backorder Requests
Once you have created your account(s) you can start making use of the backordering services.
Tip: We suggest that you submit each domain you want backordered to each service provider. This will increase your chances of catching the domain when it expires.
No you can sit back and relax, maybe look at your next day’s domain expiring
list and decide what you want to buy next. Let the pro’s register your domain
names for you.
