How often do you just let domains expire? - GoFuckYourself.com

Sarah_Jayne · 04-02-2008, 08:17 AM

I was just thinking that in the all the time that I have been registering domains that I think there is only one that I let expire and that was by mistake rather than design. Tons sitting there just doing nothing much but I still renew them each year.

How often do you just let domains expire?

dready · 04-02-2008, 08:27 AM

I let a couple go every year that I know I won't do anything with.

ChefJeff · 04-02-2008, 08:29 AM

When I got out of the business the first time I let a bunch expire cause I wasnt gonna do anything with em and they probably werent worth that much anyway.

Aside from my original domains (which were incredily stupid) I have never just let one expire. I intend on developing all of them, but I'd like to think those I don't get around to will have a resale value that covers the renewal fees paid over the years.

Eriic · 04-02-2008, 01:38 PM

I let them go via sale or expiration, but I will not be buying anymore.

DaddyHalbucks · 04-02-2008, 01:41 PM

Only if I don't want 'em.

i usually sell for atleast reg fee rather than let it drop

poto · 04-03-2008, 09:10 AM

I let a few drop every month...

mostly misspellings and really really bad names that I regged while stoned and thought were great at the time, lol...

however, there were a few that I regged back in 2001-2003 that I let drop and now wish I hadn't... oh well...

CIVMatt · 04-03-2008, 09:12 AM

I've decided I have too many and I've been selling some and letting some drop...

tranza · 04-03-2008, 09:37 AM

I think I've only let 1 domain expire in my life!

V_RocKs · 04-03-2008, 09:37 AM

About every 3 months or so I let 5 to 10 go... Usually they are outdated or proven to be crap.

ultimatebbwdotcom · 04-03-2008, 10:40 AM

Only names for projects that I've either changed my mind about or might get to do in the future but could easily pick up something to suit it.

I let a couple of .us domains expire after I found out that the United States Department of Commerce was refusing to allow domain privacy services on those domains. Other than that, I don't let stuff drop. I did have a worthless domain that I registered by mistake (typing flail followed by failure to notice the error) that I wanted to drop, but I listed it for $5 on Namecheap's sales platform and it was gone in an hour.

rvincent · 04-03-2008, 01:04 PM

I let expire a few every years... My registrar sends me about 10 remimders through... next time I'll probably delete them instead...

CurrentlySober · 04-03-2008, 01:14 PM

I cant let them expire!

I just cant! I know they will be worth-wild one day, else I would never had bought them
