What is a domain backorder, anyway?

Have you ever waited in line at the supermarket, holding a numbered ticket, and eagerly anticipating your turn? A domain backorder is similar, but instead of groceries, you’re vying for a previously owned domain name. By placing a backorder, you’ll be first in line if and when the domain becomes available for registration again. While the process involves more than just holding a ticket, our team will guide you through the process and keep you informed every step of the way.

It is owned by someone else, but you want it.
Let's see if we can make it happen.

Domains are forever (except when they’re not).

Every year, thousands of domains are left to expire for a variety of reasons. But what if the perfect domain for your business or project was among them? Don't worry - we've got you covered. Our team specializes in grabbing expired domains in the .com, .co, .info, .org, .net, .me, .mobi, .us, and .biz extensions. We'll swoop in and secure the domain you need, so you can get back to focusing on what you do best. Contact us today to see how we can help you get the domain name you've been searching for.

Go for the win.

Have you ever had your heart set on a particular domain, only to discover that someone else has the same idea? Don't give up just yet. Our domain monitoring service will alert you if another party shows interest in the same domain name as you. If the domain becomes available, we'll then hold an auction, giving you the opportunity to bid for ownership. Whether you decide to bid or not, the domain will find a new home with someone who is excited to bring their vision to life. Don't let someone else's dream domain slip away - sign up for our domain monitoring service today.

Get more from your credit.

Did you win the auction and secure your dream domain? Then congratulations! You're one step closer to building the online presence you've always wanted. But if you didn't come out on top, don't worry. Your backorder credits are flexible and can be applied to other domain names of your choosing. Whether you're looking for a .com, .net, .org, or any other domain extension in Hong Kong, our platform has you covered. With our user-friendly tools and reliable support team, you can easily manage your backorder credits and simply transfer them to another domain.

Domains are forever (except when they’re not).

Every year, there are thousands of domains that expire and don’t get renewed for one reason or another. If any of those are the domain you’re after, that’s when we swoop in and get it for you. We can do it with any .com, .co, .info, .org, .net, .me, .mobi, .us or .biz address.

Go for the win.

Your dream domain could be someone else’s, too. If someone else wants the same domain you do, we’ll let you know. At that point, it goes up for auction. You can either bid to win or pass — it’s your call. Either way, someone new is getting that domain.

Get more from your credit.

Are you the one who placed the winning bid? If that's the case, you've just acquired your dream domain. If you didn't, no problem. Your backorder credits never expire, meaning you can simply transfer them to another domain.

Options? You’ve got plenty.

Whether you won or lost that dream domain, there’s still a ton of opportunity ahead of you.

Frequently Asked Questions about Domain Backorders:

What is domain backordering?

Placing a domain backorder is essentially like putting a reservation on a domain name registered to someone else. If that domain name expires, you get a chance to register it before it’s available to the public.

How do I backorder a domain name at ELITE?

If you don’t know how to backorder a domain name, you’re not alone. The process can vary slightly from registrar to registrar, but the general process is the same across the Web. When you backorder a domain name, we apply your payment to the domain name when it expires. If you’re the only one who backordered the domain name, it’s yours at no additional cost. If it goes to auction, we use your backorder payment to place the opening bid. You can continue to bid on the domain name, or simply move your backorder credit to another domain name.

Are domain backorders guaranteed?

While we cannot guarantee that you will secure your dream domain name, we will make every attempt to acquire it on your behalf. If the current registrant doesn’t renew the domain name, we use every registration channel at our disposal to register it for you. Our backorder process gives all of our customers the chance to get the domain names they want.

How do I know when a backordered domain name becomes available?

If you purchase a domain name backorder, we notify you as soon as it becomes available. Plus, when you place a backorder at ELITE, we give you free daily monitoring tools to keep an eye on the domain name.

Why should I place my domain backorder at ELITE?

When you backorder a domain name at ELITe, we give you more than just an opportunity to secure your dream domain name. We give you tools to succeed online. Every backorder includes free Domain Monitoring, a one-year membership to ELITE Auctions®, one year of domain name registration, and proceeds toward your first bid if the domain name you backordered goes to auction.

I purchased a domain name backorder. What happens now?

The next step is to use your Domain Monitoring membership to monitor the progress of your backorder. After you backorder a domain name, we check its status daily and send you email notifications whenever there’s a change. After the current registration expires, we attempt to capture the domain name before the registry releases it to the public. If we are successful and you are the only backorder holder, you become the domain name registrant. If there are multiple backorder holders, you can participate in an auction to win the domain name.

Where can I view my domain backorder?

You can log in to your ELITE account to view and monitor your backorder in the Domain Manager. That’s where we display all of the important information you need, including status updates and the domain name’s expiration date.

Can I add privacy to my domain name backorder?

No. We no longer support privacy on backordered domains. If we’re able to successfully capture the domain for you via backorder, you can upgrade your protection plan after the domain has moved to your account.

When can I expect to receive the backordered domain name in my account?

If we are successful in our attempt to secure your dream domain, we register the domain name to you and then put it in your account within 45 days. One year of domain name registration is included in the cost of your backorder. Annual discounts available on NEW purchases only. Products will automatically renew until canceled. You may turn off the auto-renewal feature by visiting your ELITE account.

My backorder was unsuccessful. What should I do?

If your domain name backorder is unsuccessful, you can keep the backorder on the same domain to try again the next time it expires. Or, you can change your backorder to a different domain, at no cost to you.
