As an expired domain trader looking for a good domain name, you
may face a number of difficulties and challenges like fierce
competition, lightening quick registration by your competitors
and exorbitantly higher buying prices. To avoid all these hassles
and to buy very good domain names, you can use a number of domain
backordering models offered by well known backordering services.
Here are some of the famous and recognized domain backordering
models made available by backordering firms.
First Model that offers services by individual and separate
registrars:
Some well-known registrars offer this model by refusing to delete
the expiring domain name especially at stage 2. However, they may
assign a particular domain name to an individual, who has paid
the required fee to backorder the domain. Examples of registrars
are: GoDaddy.com and eNom.com.
Second Model that offers services with the help of Coordinated
Registrars:
This model offers a single window, application point for
backordering a domain by multi-registrars. You may need to submit
a request through SnapName.com web portal which eventually works
with the registrar of a particular domain just before the final
deletion. Examples of registrars are: Network Solutions.
Third Model that offers services with the help of the Registry:
All of us know that VeriSign controls the registry and it has the
power to guarantee that any domain names deleted at stage 2 is
redistributed to an interested buyer, who has registered to
VeriSign's much hyped Waiting List Service or WLS. Any ICAAN
registered and approved registrars can offer this service. It
offers you two distinctive parameters when compared to a standard
registrar type of model.
First, registrars offer this to those people, who can opt to
offer a particular domain to their customers.
Second, only the registry has the complete control over the
domain names that reside in the third stage.
Tip: If there are no pending backorder requests for any domains
forwarded through WLS, the said domain name will advance to the
fourth stage after which dedicated software can grab it for
immediate purchase.
Fourth Model that offers services by using automated registration
software:
You can capture those domains that pass the registry at sixth
stage. Using good software, you can send electronic requests for
registering a domain with the help of an ICAAN accredited
registrar. However, this is perhaps the most famous model that
poses you several challenges that concerns how quickly you are
grabbing an expired domain name. With good software, you can post
simultaneous requests at the same time.
Fifth Model that offers you service by using a Multi-model
Strategy:
To enhance your chances of winning a good domain name, you may
need to use all the above mentioned strategies and models by
subscribing to respective services. However, a number of expired
domain name traders are approaching VeriSign to use their WLS
service to bypass the registrars, who always delete expiring
domain names paid and registered through them, provided there is
not backorder requests made against those domains. All these
models require considerable amount of skills and dedication from
you, before you can grab a good expiring domain name.
