    Domain about to expire

    There is a domain I want to get that is about to expire. How long usually after the expiration date listed in whois will it take until that domain is "available" again? is there a faster way to snatch it up? thanks.

      Depends on the registrar, but normally from 30-90 days is normal.

      Snapname.com and pool.com are pretty good at picking up expiring domains.

            I'd deffinately suggest using one of those domain snatchers too.
            There's probably a bunch of brokers waiting for that domain to expire too, so get in now! Good luck!

              i used snapnames and ended up getting the domain 30 days or so after it expired. if it expires today i would still try to get it...

                are you saying that there could be people in line already waiting? This domain is not that great, just fits perfect for what we are doing.

                  Ganja, snapnames.com, pool.com, namewinner.com and other name-grabbing services auto-register them as soon as they can after expiration. With a good name, the window of opportunity is probably no longer than 1 second. Like freesexvideos.com is due to expire in the next day or two, but everybody in the expired biz is gunning for it. Not sure how fast the players retry registration these days, but it used to be in the sub-millisecond time frame, distributed across multiple registrars. If the name you want is halfway decent, rest assured there will be others trying to grab it first.

                    If it hasnt expired - why dont you contact the current owner and try to buy it outright.

                    Once it has expired and it is a really good domain, you are going to have way too many people going after it.

                          I did the same thing.. figured a domain I was waiting to be released wasn't so great and I just sat and waited for it to become available. The day it opened up, a broker took it. So you never know. *shrug*

                                Snapname.com and pool.com are pretty good at picking up expiring domains.
                                Definitly use one of them
