How does one get a domain name that is expiring?
There is a domain name that I've been interested in for a few years that I'd like to won. Unfortunately, it is owned by someone else. Happily, their registration expired yesterday, so I thought that I'd be able to register it today. How naive I was. It it seems that getting an expiring domain is actually a complicated and sometimes expensive process. The short of it is that if you have a domain expiring today, it is usually 75 days later that it enters the registration pool between 11 and 2 pm Pacific time. If you are interested in learning more about the process or the various services that help you snag one of these domains when they come up for re-registration, I enjoyed the article How to Snatch an Expiring Domain by Mike Industries.
