Web Hosting Talk : Web Hosting Main Forums : Domain Names : very important confusion about domain deletion

[gold2]

Hi member
i am discussing here about domain deletion. i was register domain with supersite domain reseller before 2 years. after renewal date i did not pay for this domain. i received email that my domain has been deleted. now when i check this domain after 1 year for availability it show that domain is still not available

ok now come to the domain registrar internet.bs i was register domain with internet.bs after 1 year when i not pay for renewal i received email that domain has been delete. after some months when i check this domain again for availability i found this that domain is available for registration.

Hope all member will understand that what i am saying.

why after deletion domain is not available again with resellerclub and why after deletion domain is available again with internet.bs

This diagram will show you the "life cycle" all gTLDs, especially .coms, follow:

Each registrar has its own "grace period" within the 1st part of that cycle. Once the registrar "lets go" of that expired domain, it follows the latter parts of it.

Notice in the "middle" part that there's a portion where the registrar might try to auction the expired name before pulling the plug. So depending on the registrar of that domain name before, they either auctioned it successfully or let it go and was eventually re-registered by someone else.

most probably the first domain-name that expired was grabbed immediatly after dropping (drop-catching). There are many well-known companies that specialize in this market (like Snap Names, Name Jet etc.).

This issue also with me.The domain is delete but the confirm domain deletion date will mail you.I think it's 52 days to deletion complete then you will renew the domain.

If this will happen to me, I will just buy another domain. It sucks to wait for this to be available again.

But sometimes we have to wait for our own domain on which our business is based.
Just like your domain is registered with a webhosting provider and he locks domain then what will you do? You can do nothing else wait for domain deletion so that you re register it.
