got a lil project going with a friend for our first serious website. We had a domain name in mind but it was taken, upon checking the domain it didnt have a site behind it for a long time and its expiring next week.
So i am looking forward to snag it... now i am wondering if someone has experience with this. I am afraid that my webhost which offers to buy additional domains wont update fast enough to realize that the domain was released and that someone else might buy it before me which would make it impossible to buy it without throwing huge amounts of money at the guy.
Second possibility i see is Godaddy where the domain is registered buying the domain the moment its released into public and reselling it for higher amount.
Anyone have experience with this? any services that would allow us to buy it asap? what if godaddy buys it after release and resells it, what kind of prices are we looking at?
everything can be snagger within hours of expiring. Should be really easy. Normally the expire date is registered in the DNS record somewhere, so when you register, the DNS records will show that it is free.
http://caught.co.uk/ Provides such a service, but you have to pay up front now (they used to do payment on delivery, but people didn't pay!). I've used them before to buy a domain and it all worked out great. Its a single guy operation so the customer service is excellent.
