Domain Back Order

Domain names are technically not owned; they are leased for a number of years to domain registrants. If the registrants fail to renew their domain names, they are deleted from the registry after the period of registration and a grace period for re-registration have expired. This means that you may be able to take the opportunity to register these pre-owned domains yourself!

The Domainmonster.com back order service allows you to place a back order on a domain name, meaning that if the current owner fails to renew their registration, we will snap it up for you the moment it becomes available. Our systems continually poll soon-to-expire domain names for our customers, so that we can grab them for you before anyone else does. It's free to set up a domain back order; you will only be charged the back order fee if your back ordered domain is successfully registered. See our back order page for more information.
