backordering domains

Lets say I went to godaddy for instance, and tried to register a domain name that was already taken. Now it says that the domain is not available of course, but it gives me an option to backorder the domain.

Now, lets say I did go ahead and backorder the domain. Now lets say the expiration date for the domain has come around. If the owner of domain does renew it, will I get my backordering fee back? Or does my backorder stay in place for the next expiration date? How does it all work?

Thank you!

I think the way GoDaddy works is that they'll give you a credit for another backorder.

That is correct. Your $18.95 is gone, but you will always have the backorder as a credit until it is used successfully.

Here < link removed > is a post that I wrote about expired domains and how to catch them etc. I think it's worth the read.
