Hello guys, I hope every one is doing fine... If a domain name is expiring lets say xx-xx-xxxx... when i will be able to register it ? and if that domain is kind of good domain name.. is there any legal issue if i register it when its expires ?
You have to wait until the end of the 30-day redemption period which is to allow registrants to save their domains before registration is completely canceled.
There are quite a few domain pros who buy up old domains that once belonged to businesses and then sell then back to them. Morally dodgy methinks, Certainly the old expired traffic can be good. good article here on explaining the whole process. http://www.dropscout.com/help/domain-name-expiration-process
