When a domain name expires, there's a period of a little over sixty days when it is inactive, but can still be renewed by its current user. During this time, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but in case it's not renewed, it goes into the so-called Pending Deletion period that lasts 5 days. This is when ICANN-accredited registrar companies accept backorders for such domain names. In case a particular name is backordered, the registrar will try to register it for the customer the moment it is deleted and accessible to the general public, which gives people an opportunity to acquire a short and memorable domain which may have been used by another person until now. In case the domain is very appealing, several companies may 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 name. However, employing a backorder service will give you a lot better chance to obtain a specific domain than when you try to register it yourself.

Domain Backorder in Web Hosting

All web hosting packages that we offer come with a domain backorder service as standard as our company is a partner of an ICANN-authorized registrar. You may order a domain right from your Hepsia Control Panel where you will see a list of all the domains planned to be erased in the next few days. Helpful filters will help you to narrow the list, so instead of checking out thousands of names, you'll be able to search for a particular phrase, specify the extension as well as the length, or browse only domain names that will be deleted on a specific date. The filters will save you a lot of time and placing a backorder will take you only one click. In case we obtain the domain that you would like to have, it'll be available inside your Control Panel without delay. If we are not successful, the funds for it will be available in your account and you shall be able to use it for other domains - new registrations, renewals and / or backorders.

Domain Backorder in Semi-dedicated Servers

Being a licensed registrar, we offer domain backorders with each semi-dedicated server account and you'll be able to take advantage of this service via your Hepsia Control Panel, not through a separate platform. All domains that will be erased soon will be listed in an individual section and you will be able to search all of them or set a custom filter so as to lower the number of domain names you'll need to browse through. You will be able to pick the particular deletion date, the domain name extension, the minimum and maximum number of letters, or search by a specific phrase or a dictionary word. Using filters will save you a lot of efforts and will enable you to search for a good domain name fast and easy. In case we don't register the name you'd like to have, you will still be able to use the money for it for another service.

Domain Backorder in Dedicated Servers

In case you have a dedicated server from our company, you shall be able to backorder a domain name directly from your billing Control Panel and will not have to sign up for another platform since we partner with an ICANN-approved registrar. A separate section in the Control Panel is dedicated to this particular service and you'll find a list of all domains scheduled to be deleted there. Thanks to the filters which we have added for your convenience, you can easily choose to see domain names from a particular date, to set the maximum and minimum length and to pick an extension, thus narrowing the list you'll have to look through. In addition, you can enter a particular phrase or select to see domain names that include dictionary words and are not just a random combination of letters and numbers. It takes just a click to order any domain in the list and in case we are unable to register it before someone else does that, you will not lose your money and it will be added as a credit to your account.
