    I have signed up with GoDaddy Backorder service & Pool.com backorder service.

    Do you guys recommend any other ones or these 2 are good?

    do these companies all use this stupid bidding system? What I mean by "stupid" is that some companies don't let you know who, how many or what other bids you are bidding against. You really don't have a clue how high to bid?

    If it's a five character or less domain that is brandable then there will be more users trying to order it.

    If it´s some good domain name, forgot about GoDaddy backorder. Go with Pool and SnapNames.

    I have already registered with all the major domain grabbers. I don't like the GoDaddy service even though I registered. They charge upfront unlike other major players in the market.

    snapnames is another one... but it's still gonna be tough, particularly if the domain is especially desirable...
