    I was looking up domains of go daddy and Just for kicks I look at myspace. com and it has X X X X for everyone except .info. How do they get that X? When I look at mine it says you can backorder it.
    Was Just curious on how they lock that in

    I am just guessing here, but Im going to say they have it registered for a very long time or have it on automatic renew (so it never expires and thus cannot backorder).

    Possibly as they have no valid website on that domain name OR it is up for sale.

    Hm, I was talking about the .com, maybe you were talking about the .info he mentioned later. I did some research but couldnt find the answer, but Im pretty sure it has something to do with auto-renew or registered for a very long time.

    I was talking about the .com but just happened to mention the .info you can backorder, but the rest you cant?
