When a domain name expires, there's a period of a little over eight weeks when it's inactive, but may still be renewed by its current owner. During this time period, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but if it isn't renewed, it enters the so-called Pending Deletion period which lasts five days. This is the time when ICANN-accredited registrar firms take backorders for these domain names. When a specific name is backordered, the registrar will make an attempt to register it for the customer as soon as it's deleted and available to the public, which gives people a chance to get a short and memorable domain that may have been used by some other person up to now. In case the domain is extremely appealing, several companies may try to register it in the same time and since this happens on a first-come, first-serve basis, there's no guarantee that a specific person will get that domain. Nonetheless, employing a backorder service will give you a lot better chance to acquire a specific domain than if you attempt to register it personally.

Domain Backorder in Web Hosting

You'll be able to backorder domains from your Hepsia Control Panel because we work with an ICANN-certified registrar company and we offer this service as part of all web hosting plans. Because of this, you will not need a separate account and you'll be able to control the newly acquired domain name along with the hosting space for it in one place. The service has its own part in the Control Panel where you will discover all domains due to be erased in the next five 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 only for domains which contain dictionary words or set a phrase of your choosing. Acquiring a domain name from the list will take you only a click and if we are unable to register the required name, your money won't be wasted and you'll be able to use it for domain name registrations, renewals and / or backorders in the future.

Domain Backorder in Dedicated Servers

As we are an authorized registrar company, we've included a backorder section within the billing Control Panel of our dedicated servers, so that you can employ this service fast and easy without having to create a separate account. When you go to this section, you will see the whole list of the domain names which will become available in the following 5 days. Using the filters we have added, you can browse domains which will be deleted on a particular date, and choose their extension and length. In addition to that, you can search by a specific phrase or use a dictionary option that will filter all domain names that are just random groups of letters and numbers. It takes just a mouse click to place a backorder for any domain from the list and if we register it successfully, you'll be able to manage it instantly from the very same Control Panel. In the event that someone else takes the desired domain, the funds will be added as credit to your account and will not be wasted.
