Domain tasting ?

[clown]

Hi, I have not registered domain names for traffic in quite some time. I used to register at moniker for the 5 day grace period, then expire if it didnt have traffic.
Can we still do that ? I still have a moniker acct but as I said I have not regged a domain for traffic in quite a few years.

I want to register 10 or so names to test out for traffic.

if not at moniker, is there anywhere else I can do this ?
thanks for any info.

Not possible at Moniker.

that sucks. do you know a place I can still do this ? or does ICANN not allow this "Grace" period anymore.

dynadot does but they charge like 3 bucks when you delete a domain or something. tasting is pretty much dead.

3 bucks is better than 9 bucks. thanks for the info.

I thought Icann stop that at all registars. No one can taste anymore.

You can still taste but there are caps (10% volume max + non-refundable icann fee).

BTW the limits vary from one tld to another, for instance you can taste .us without limits.

Mentioning "taste" and "caps" in the same sentence sounds ironic
