How to return the domain

How to return the domain

After registration of a domain name for the website and payment of its use, for example, for one year ahead, care of this aspect of a web resource at its owner pales into insignificance. Often there it also remains, even when the paid period of use passes, and the expired domain stops being the property of the owner who registered it - so happens almost from 20% of domains in the zone RU. When once the website ceases to respond to the name, before the former owner of the domain this aspect of existence of a web resource turns other side - how to return the lost domain.

Instruction

1. Find out from the logger of your domain whether there is no opportunity nevertheless to prolong registration term - many companies as good businessmen, make money and on forgetfulness of the clients. Under the terms of service many loggers have some time period (normally - of a month to three) during which the domain remains in the property of the logger if the owner did not pay its extension. At the request of WHOIS in information on the domain during such period it is possible to receive the status of On Hold. Within these months you still have an opportunity to prolong registration term, but there is it usually, at least, twice more expensively than standard prices.

2. Wait for the end of this transition period if to pay more expensively you have no desire or an opportunity. When on request of WHOIS in information on the domain the status changes with On hold on Deleted, register it again in the same or other company registrar.

3. Use service of loggers of domains, many of which suggest to catch the released domain earlier, than it will be made by other persons interested to catch it. It makes sense to use this not free service if you are sure that the domain name quite recently belonging to you is in the increased demand in this market.

4. Find contact information of the owner if already someone managed to register the domain name which was yours on himself. Perhaps, the new owner will agree to re-register the domain on your name for an acceptable payment or from pure altruism. Or perhaps he will agree to sign with you the contract under which the domain will remain for the new owner, but will point to the DNS servers servicing your website. If the current owner refuses cooperation, and you have a registered trademark which matches a domain name, then it is possible to try to appeal to arbitration court, having accused the new owner of cybersquatting.
