I was wondering: Buying a domain from Godaddy auction and looks like: Created on: 22-Nov-05 Expires on: 22-Nov-08 Last Updated on: 11-Oct-07 Since it just expired a little over a month ago - will it keep the age of 3 years if I buy it?
If you buy it expired you will get a new creation date, but age always remain AFAIK. On some sites where you can check domain age, it is showing it's first creation date but whois is showing new date. I'm lil confused with that too and wanted to ask this long ago. Anyone knows exactly?
If this is any indication I bought a domain from the Godaddy auction that expired Nov. 22 2008 It is a 4 year old domain and I took possession of it today. I looked up the Whois info and all my information is correct and it still shows it as 4 years old.
i have a couple a re-registered through the redemption period after they expired and the age still remained the same
It expired but never actually deleted. GoDaddy has it set up somehow that the domains go into TDNAM expirying auction during the redemption period but I believe that the owner can still renew it and cause a bit of a mess - don't quote me. Honestly though, this question has been asked before so I will provide you with some solid advice right here...
I have a question here. How much do you actually pay after you won the auction? Assume you won the bid on a .com @ $20, does the $20 include the renewal fee of $10.99 OR you'll have to pay $20 + $10.99 = $30.99? I was going to register a tdnam account for $4.99 but got a little confused about the expiring auction system. Please enlighten me.
the expiry date of a domain only changes of the domain is deleted and re-registered..otherwise it retains its reg and expiry dates
