Backordering Domain Names

[thehemi]

There are a couple of domain names that I want

that have expired and are waiting for the timeout

period with the Central Registry. What's the best

(preferrably fastest) way to backorder a domain?

I know GoDaddy has their DomainAlert Pro, but is

there any better options? SnapNames? They're $

but have a nice partnership deal, but the Registrar

in question of the domains I'm watching is not one

of the SnapNames partners. Curious of any others

that I might check out? Anyone have experiences?

It appears that TCH does domain backorders, too.

Of course we do. Just remember, there are no guarantees that you will get them. The owner can renew or someone could have back ordered it before you.

Yeah, I know it's not guaranteed. But I would feel better knowing

that there's an online registrar service watching for me. They can

probably punch in a registration faster than me getting an update

from my script and registering manually. Thanks.
