SnapNames Works

To my amazement, SnapNames.com secured a domain for me through on of their partner registrars. The original registrar was GoDaddy.com, so I assumed that a backorder with them would better my chances. Wrong! SnapNames worked this time. I got nervous when I noticed the domain was picked up and none of my backorder companies secured the name or entered into auction. So, where’s this going? Simply, this is my follow-up on a process of securing deleting domains and how the process works in short. Rather, this jumble of text will not cover every angle so you may need to look into archives. Moving along…

Services like Pool.com and Enom.com will usually secure domains deleting domains first, yet SnapNames uses third parties to secure registration lending their strategy to more hits to the deleting TLD’s. The backorder game is getting bigger and more competitive. What’s more, so many companies are hitting the deleting domains shows that the major players are expanding their tentacles. This game is crazy as you can imagine, little or no .com TLD’s available means many of us are waiting on the sidelines to snatch someone’s forgotten idea.
