How do you backorder a domain name for free?

Question

How can I park on the name I want so I grab it first - without paying for it?

Answer 1

As redsoxer answered, you don't. No such thing as a free lunch, right?

If it's the next best thing, snapnames will let you make a backorder for the name in question. They'll charge you only if they're able to: a) successfully nab it for you if you're the only one, or b) you're the highest bidder after winning an auction among multiple contenders.

Before you do backorder, though, I suggest the following:

1. Check the domain name's status. One of the lines might read Registrar-Lock, Redemption Period, etc.

2. Depending on what its status is, it might have expired or has already been deleted. See where it's registered.

3. If it's still active but expired, check the deletion policies of the sponsoring domain registrar in question. It should tell you what they'll do to the expired name (either try to auction it or let it go if there are no interested takers).

4. If it's on redemption period, that's when you can backorder with a 3rd party like snapnames (or enom's club drop or pool). If you've more cash to spare, you can boost your chances with signing up with the 3 I mentioned since they have the best "batting averages" than others.

It's not 100% guaranteed, by the way. But by knowing how it goes, you can have an edge over the others.

i might propose utilising lunar pages as a guidance superhighway host. Plus they grant you loose area registration with an account. Godaddy has been generally occurring for doing particularly some subject concerns like "unintended area transfers" and lots greater desirable. You upload your html stuff with an FTP client. that's extremely equivalent to domicile domicile windows explorer distinctive than you come back to a determination on the folder you come back to a determination directly to function to and you drag the guidance into it to do it. i come to a determination for to indicate Filezilla, that's loose.
