How I quickly grabbed expired domain name.

MemberWing · 02-17-2009, 06:39 PM

I was looking for domain solarsprint.com for my son's school project.
It wasn't available so I registered solarpsprint.org
2 weeks after I got email from some "zip domains" that solarpsrint.com can be purchased from them for $100.
In a few hours I got another email from different, even more obscure "domaineer" entity that I could purchase it from them for $99.97.

I wondered and decided to log into my 1and1 panel and try to register this domain. And, guess what - it was available!
I grabbed it for $8.

So these scammers didn't own anything - but if people pay them $100 - they'd grab it and re-sell it right away, pocketing profit.

Although they could be used as a free notificator that some decent domain of interest *just* become available!

Yea I get those emails often as well, sometimes what they'll also do is use a method called "domain tasting" to grab the domain for 5 days and then request a full refund. If they do that, the domain becomes available to register.

If you really want to get ahead of the DN curve register with pool and watch as world of domains opens up right before your eyes daily.

How could one "register with pool" and what kind of fees are involved?

Hi, I believe there is a kind of service that lets you know which 'hot" domains are available for register.

If someone knows what that service is for domains, can you please post it, I would be very interested as well.

There are plenty such as expireddomains(com), deleted domains (com) expireddomainsup(com) but all comes with a small subscription fee. I am not aware if there are any free list around.
