    my friend that expiration date does not mean a thing

    some host will automatically re-register for them
    or they already re-registered the domain already
    just it didn't show up thats all

    don't just look at when it going to expire
    try to look if that site is still up or not

    even tho if that site is expired
    without the owners permission you might still not be able to register

    you need authentication code and you have to call it's host to release that domain

    hope my info clear out your curiosity

    Hey AutoSnipe

    I know its confusing as hell. Registrar rules on domains just don't make much sense.. and sadly, they will differ from registrar to registrar depending on their own policies. Enom is perhaps the worst as far as expired domains go.

    However, to help you understand the processes that take place, this guy has written up in full detail what goes on after a domain expires and why you cannot get your hands on it so easily :)

    When Does an Expired Domain Name Become Available?

    Good luck with trying to get it ;)

    Hi.

    My english is my second langauge, so any mistakes I make, my appologies.
    Can Someone help me please?
    I Recently Start buy domains and park them, with then idea, and hope to make some extra money.

    I find a domain that I LIKE and has an Approximate Search Volume in google 83,100,000.
    Is not .com though, is .net

    What The Numbers Means( 83,100,000)? Thousands? or million?:eek:
    is it worth it to register this one?:confused:
    Has an average advertiser competition.
    When I see A number like 74,000 I believe is thousand.

    Any Help Would Be Appreciated
