Snapping names ahead of time???

NexSite · Feb 26, 2003

Has anyone noticed that more and more names are getting snapped months ahead of time? Its getting crazy. They keep finding ways to get into speculators pockets. They think they have a system to stop it, and the ones with the most resources just come up with a script, search pending delete dates, check to see if email is up to date, and throw a %40 - $70 snap on it. What is wait list going to do to your snaps???

Yes.

I think it's called "increasing competition".

More and more people realise there is the *possibility* of making a bit of money, and more and more people are finding out how to get the snaps on earlier.

What will the threatened/promised WLS do to the snapback orders?

The snapback orders are supposed to be transferrable. If not to the same name, then to another name of your choice.

It's interesting to note that, YES... all the GOOD names have SnapBack's on the MONTHS ahead of time. That's just smart business. It's not as if the best names are worth peanuts... they have HIGH value, so there you go. What's a $69 Snap if you can make $2,000-$50,000 on a really good name. The more successful you are, the more likely your are to take it that seriously.

You don't really need to have fancy scripts and resources though. Many many websites out their let you check pending expires for FREE. Just need to be diligent about it.
