How to Catch an Expiring Domain Name—Case Study & Tutorial—Review of Domain Catchers

How to Catch an Expiring Domain Name—Case Study & Tutorial—Review of Domain Catchers: "Domain Catching Services

I read up on services that attempt to "catch" domain names for you at the very instant the Registrar drops them. Nowadays, for valuable domain names, individuals stand no chance of registering an expiring domain by themselves, because "name-catching" services try to time the "drop" to the fraction of a second. Using multiple servers, they bombard the registry with registration requests. If you want to be sure to get an expiring domain, you probably need to use one of these services.

But there is a catch. If you "book" a domain with two of the top three players (Enom and Pool.com), they do not simply buy it for you. Once they have secured the name, they put it on auction. In the case of Pool.com, it's a multi-stage auction system that ensures you will buy the name for the absolute highest price you are willing to pay. "
