When a domain name expires, there's a time period of a little over two months when it's inactive, but can still be renewed by the current owner. During this period, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but in case it isn't renewed, it enters the so-called Pending Deletion period which lasts five days. This is the time when ICANN-accredited registrar companies accept backorders for such domains. When a specific name is backordered, the registrar will try to register it for the customer as soon as it is deleted and accessible to the general public, which gives people the chance to get a short and easy to remember domain which may have been used by somebody else up to now. If the domain is very appealing, a couple of companies may try to register it in the same time and due to the fact that this happens on a first-come, first-serve basis, there is no guarantee that a particular person will have that domain. Nevertheless, employing a backorder service will give you a better chance to get a particular domain than if you try to register it personally.
Domain Backorder in Website Hosting
All website hosting plans that we offer feature a domain backorder service by default as we work with an ICANN-certified registrar. You may order a domain from your Hepsia Control Panel where you will see a list of all the domains scheduled to be deleted in the following few days. Handy filters will enable you to narrow the list, so instead of searching through thousands of names, you can search for a particular phrase, specify the extension and the length, or browse only domain names that will be deleted on a given date. The filters will save you a considerable amount of time and placing a backorder will take you only one mouse click. In case we obtain the domain name that you'd like to have, it'll be available in your Control Panel quickly. If we aren't successful, the money for it will be available in your account and you shall be able to use it for other domains - new registrations, renewals and / or backorders.
Domain Backorder in Semi-dedicated Hosting
We've decided to add a domain backorder service to the Hepsia Control Panel that comes with all semi-dedicated hosting accounts, so you shall not need to register with a different platform. This service will allow you to register a domain and host it in one place. All of the domains planned to be erased in the following days will be placed in the Backorder part of Hepsia and you will be able to browse them from a to z. To reduce the number, you will be able to search by a specific phrase, determine the minimum and maximum number of characters your domain should contain, and select a specific extension. You'll also be able to browse through domains by the exact date they will be deleted. Since there is no 100% guarantee that we'll be able to register a specific domain, in case our attempt is unsuccessful, the funds for that domain name will be available as a credit inside your account and will not be wasted.
Domain Backorder in VPS Hosting
Since our company is a partner of an ICANN-certified registrar, we offer a domain name backorder service for all our internet hosting packages, including the virtual private servers. You will find the full list of all domains that will be deleted in the following days inside your VPS billing Control Panel and placing an order for any of them will take you just a single click. Because the list is pretty large, we have included a few filters which will make it easier to find good domains - specify the domain name extension and the minimum/maximum length, check the domains which will be deleted on a given date, view only domains which contain dictionary words or enter a string of characters of your choosing. As backordering a domain does not guarantee that we will be able to register it, you'll still be able to use the funds from the order for different other services in case that the registration attempt is not successful.
Domain Backorder in Dedicated Web Hosting
A domain name backorder section is available inside the billing Control Panel of the dedicated servers which we offer because we are an accredited registrar company. The service will help you to find good domains without subscribing for another platform and you'll be able to place an order with just a mouse click. All domain names which will be erased in the following days will be listed in that section and you shall be able to set a variety of filters in order to narrow the list and browse only domains that interest you - minimum/maximum length, the actual deletion date, extension, etcetera. You will also be able to browse only domains which contain dictionary words or ones that contain a phrase that you enter, thus saving your time and efforts to browse through numerous random names. In case you order a certain domain name and we cannot register it, we'll credit your account and you will not lose your funds.
