    Hi,
    I have paid attention that .info domains are expired at the same time , earlier than .org and .org earlier than .com and .net , But what is the exact time which they expire ?

    Another question, when you do whois for a domain you can see his expiration hour, when this timecomes could I really register this domain ? is this time in GMT ?


    Thanks in advanced,
    Tom

    When a domain expires, it goes into a redemption period for up to 90 days. Most are about 30 days. At that point if nobody had put in a backorder, you could register if you are the first to do so.

    what special about those 30 days ? only for backorders ?

    How much backorder costs ? where ? is there any contest ? is there any refund if not winning ?

    Thanks in advanced.
