For Sale to snap or not?

[Biggie]

i want to get a domain that is expiring in a few weeks.

it is of no interest to a reseller, has no traffic or links.

should i use a drophunter/backorder service......or try to hand-reg it?

what service is most reliable in this area?

I would put a $2 enom drop club bid on it.

 

[Jack Gordon]

put a $10 or $15 namewinner bid on it

Why even risk, might as well cover all your bases. Ive learned that the hard way when there was a name I didn't think anyone else wouldn want, and suddenly found myself having to looking at BFD site whenever i go the url.

How bad do you want it?

If you want it bad then why not cover all of your bases?
Snap, Godaddy, DropWizard, NW, etc.

 

[skylight]

at least use namewinner

 

[think]

Use them all including Pool and still don't be surprised if a private company or BuyDomains snags your desired domain.

The fact that you are considering a snap answers your question that it is worth the price of a snap. If you don't use pool you run the risk of it appearing on their hotlist and someone else will use their service to get the name.

Best of luck in your quest.

Thanks for the responses!

I couldn't see where anyone else would have an interest, like BD/Pool or any of the others. As only the .com is registered for this name, and no has traffic/links or content.

Perhaps, I'll try NW or Enom clubdrop.

Thanks again!
