Catching Newly Dropped Domains?

Featured Replies

Hi,

As we realized, there are literally tones of domains being dropped every single day. At the same time, we also know that there are some major players in snapping up these domain as soon it drops.

 

So, what tools or services did you use that has help to secure the domain that you have been eyeing?? and finally dropped and you caught it!

Well, there are three major players in the drop catching game - Snapnames, Enom's Club Drop, and Pool. Personally, I like Snapnames the best for a couple of reasons: They get all the good names due large in part to their exclusive contract with Network Solutions, which has been around forever. Therefore, many of the older and better names (ie: generics, old established websites) go straight to Snapnames. However, if there is a name that is dropping and you would like to get, use all three services, and you only pay for the one that actually gets the name for you. If more than one person places a backorder, then it goes to auction - in which case, good luck!

Is it possible to 'drop catch' .uk domains yet? I was looking out for a brilliant .uk a couple of years ago and missed it.

One of their options is .co.uk (is that the same as .uk?)

 

Funny that someone should post this thread as I am just getting into the business of catching dropped domains ;)

On a side note, if anyone wants a pr4 domain that unregistered shoot me a pm, I bought just the name from a guy for 4 bucks, but you can have domain if you want it, (you have to register it) the only reason I didn't was because its an odd name :p)
