Hi,

I am interested in a domain that has a hypothetical expiration date say (say May-1-2012). The domain is registered at Moniker and will be dropping through the Snapnames system. I am weighting whether to try to just backorder it through Snapnames or try to synchronize the 40-45 days after the expiration date and buy it from the expiring auctions (May-10 through May-15). I have bought domains through the Godaddy auctions and know that placing a backorder on a domain there is like placing a bullseye on a target. In godaddy auctions, the backorder is just the first bid inviting more to bid during the expiration period. My questions are the following:

1. By backordering a moniker domain through Snapnames, am I making my interest public, and inviting more bids?
2. What is the timing of domains that go from moniker to snapnames, can I trust the 40-45 days to work correctly?
3. Are there any strategies that you guys use here?

Thanks in advance
