Hi,

I wondered if anyone knew a good service for buying a domain name that is just about to run out but is currently held by someone else? What's the best and most reliable for nabbing it?

Hi Kinnth,

if you really need the domain name you should opt for a drop catching service like Caught.co.uk/ DropCatcher/Detagged. They get names in micro seconds of release but charge a fee... If the name has some generic meaning i'd advise you don't use 123-reg/uk2 etc because you'll likely miss out..


Hope that helps

I'd recommend 123-reg.co.uk also.
Never had a problem with them, and have used them for years now.

Someone lese would be 99p.org though there backend is no where as good as 123's.

Go to acorndomains.co.uk There are several people there that offer domain drop catching.
