Websites HELP-What is the best place to backorder a domain dropping from godaddy

[lordbyroniv]

I have it backordered at namejet and snapnames

Is it worth backordering via godaddy

It should have been sent to TDNAM first, unless it's now in pending-delete. Check the current status.

Expired domains with Godaddy go to TDNAM auctions.

You can buy a backorder from godaddy and if nobody is backordering the same domain first, you will get the domain once it expired. Otherwise, they will go to tdnam. You can only do this before the domain expires.

So are you saying if I backordered the domain before it expired (which I did) that I will get the name when it drops? It wont go to tdnam? and I dont have to backorder via snapnames or other drop service?

The name is not yet in PENDING-DELETE status but I hope and expect it will go any day now

Thanks for the help

I think it still goes to TDNAM for auction.

 

[lordbyroniv]

Really? Anybody can confirm or deny whether backordering definitvely kicks it to tdnam? If so, maybe I should remove my backorder? Advice anyone PLEASE

That was my understanding too. I mean why wouldn't Godaddy be doing this if they can auction the name for more?
