If i buy a domain name for 1 year. once it expires, can i rebuy it for another year without the risk of it getting it taken.

My registrar says the domain expired in January and wants to charge me $200 to reclaim it. But WHOIS lists me in all three places, and says that domain is registered until January 2008.

I want it to pop up anytime you go to the page.

Okay I thought of this name “Romantique Interiors” 5 years ago,and even bought a webdomain that since expired. Well, I was doing a search on it and I found 1 company that now is using that name, and they bought my old domain I let go.

I searched the trademark office, and no one has registered this name, so if I purchase a trade mark will I be able to tell them “this is my name”?

There is a domain name I want and it is expired, but I am unable to buy it. Why is that?

Did they get shut down? please tell me they didnt lol they were my favorite website..or do you think there Domain Name Expired?

I tried to go to the corporate website, but the domain expired. It would be wonderful if i could speak with someone about this company a little more. I might join. I’ve heard wonderful things about the company. I was initial looking into a company by the name of freedom rocks, heard some mixed things about them. Sounds like Oceanside wealth takes the cake when it comes to FOREX MLM. Anyone with any information or an existing member of this company please respond. Thank you!

Will open fine, but for whatever website, it says:
Address Not Found

www.google.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again.

The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.

* Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. “ww.mozilla.org” instead of

“www.mozilla.org”)

* Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.

* Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.

* Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.

Help please……….
im using wifi, so the ethernet thing is not a problem. Its not just today, it hasnt been working for a while

Yahoo canceled my account some time ago. As per their terms of service, I was given no warning prior to this occurring. However, they continued to charge me after my account was closed.

Any inquiry to anything at all about my prior account has been answered with a form email (though a different name has been at the bottom each time).

As per the terms of service, Yahoo reserves the right to transfer domains to itself in the event of a canceled account, yet they have not done so at this point. If they’re going to transfer rights to Yahoo, that’s fine, but sitting on it while it’s still registered to me, while giving absolutely no answers to any questions, is nothing short of domain theft in my opinion.

All I want is to be done with Yahoo, their nonexistent customer service, and their “we cancel accounts just because, and continue to charge you for it” business practices.

Can anyone offer a suggestion (besides wait for the registration to expire)?

How can I find out if a domain name I am interested in is going to expire any time soon? I know the registrar… what should i be looking for on the registrar’s site, or do I need to call them and inquire?
