I've found a domain which is on redemptionperiod for more than 6 months with godaddy! Is that possible? Status: redemptionPeriod Updated Date: xx-jul-2007 Creation Date: xx-jan-2006 Expiration Date: xx-jan-2007 I tried to backorder it but there's no specific date to drop on snapnames. Wonder why is that?
usually domains take 4 months if i am not wrong to drop.. are you sure it shows 6 months? i mean did you try backordering from other sites? maybe there s a glitch in registry...
And how do you know that? Glitches happen. No one's perfect, however much we try. That Updated Date line tells me it was recently deleted by Go Daddy and, as stated, is now in Redemption Period. If the last registrant doesn't redeem the domain name within that 30-day window starting from the last updated date, count roughly 35 days after that and that's when it'll be released.
