When a domain expires, there's a period of a little over sixty days when it is inactive, but may still be renewed by its current user. During this time, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but in case it is not renewed, it enters the so-called Pending Deletion period which lasts five days. This is the time when ICANN-accredited registrar companies take backorders for such domains. If a particular name is backordered, the registrar will attempt to register it for the customer immediately after it is deleted and offered to the general public, which gives people the option to get a short and memorable domain which may have been employed by some other person up until this moment. In case the domain is really appealing, a couple of companies can try to register it in the same time and due to the fact that this happens on a first-come, first-serve basis, there's no warranty that a specific person will have that domain. Nevertheless, using a backorder service will give you a better chance to acquire a specific domain than when you try to register it personally.
Domain Backorder in Shared Hosting
You'll be able to backorder domains from your Hepsia Control Panel because we partner with an ICANN-approved registrar company and we provide this service as a part of all shared hosting packages. This way, you won't need a separate account and you shall be able to manage the recently bought domain and also the hosting space for it in one place. The service has its own part in the Control Panel where you will discover all domains scheduled to be deleted within the next 5 days. For a more precise search, you will be able to use several filters that we have added - minimum and maximum number of characters, domain extension, exact deletion date, etc. You will also be able to search exclusively for domain names that include dictionary words or specify a phrase of your choice. Acquiring a domain from the list will take you just a mouse click and in case we are unable to register the desired name, the money won't be lost and you'll be able to use it for domain registrations, renewals or backorders later on.
Domain Backorder in Semi-dedicated Servers
In case you have a semi-dedicated server account from our company, you will not have to open an individual account to backorder a domain because we provide this service within the Hepsia hosting Control Panel. A full list of all domains scheduled to be deleted will be at your disposal and you will be able to purchase any domain with just a single click. Employing the filters for a specific deletion date, domain length and top-level extension will enable you to narrow the search and surf only domain names you are attracted to. You'll also be able to browse domains that contain only dictionary words or a certain phrase of your choice, which could save you a lot of time because many hundreds of domains are erased every single day. Of course, if we are unable to acquire the desired domain name, the money for it will be present as credit for upcoming orders and you will not lose it.
Domain Backorder in Dedicated Servers
A domain backorder section is available inside the billing Control Panel of the dedicated servers which we provide as we are an authorized registrar company. The service will allow you to discover good domains without subscribing for some other platform and you'll be able to place an order with only a mouse click. All domains that will be deleted in the coming days will be listed in that section and you will be able to set many different filters to narrow the list and browse only domain names that interest you - minimum/maximum length, exact deletion date, extension, etc. You will also be able to browse only domain names which contain dictionary words or ones that contain a phrase that you insert, thus saving the time and efforts to go through numerous random names. If you order a particular domain name and we can't register it, we will credit your account and you will not lose your money.
