so i was searching who was using my domain name and it turns out to be that it still under my name and it expires in 2008, how do i tell yahoo i want to change my domain name to another host

can someone book a domain name after it gets expired ?

What are the condition for it?

there is domain name which about to expire and i wish to book that ..

If i book it what are the govt rules apply to that,,

Last year I purchased a domain address and my personal information (name, address and phone number) was stored on the Whois database, as I believe it is for alot of web domain registrations. My one year ownership of this web address has since expired however my personal information is still listed on the Whois database. How can I have this information removed?

Telling me my website domain name’s free trail has expired and I will have to pay to renew it…

I don’t want it, so if I just ignore it, will it go away?

Or will they make me pay and I’ll have to end up going to Watchdog? Help!

(About a year ago I got a free trail for a domain name with Microsft Office)

So i tried to go on a site and this message comes up with a bunch of stuff..NOTICE: This domain name expired on 08/15/2009 and is pending renewal or deletion

What does this mean?

Ok, going to give a little scenario to help out

name.com was running a really good site which i really loved and enjoyed. He suddenly closed the site and has has it go to error cant be found page ever since (about 9 months).

The domain “name.com” (example) has just now expired and i am thinking of buying it when the grace period is over.

Will i be able to take on the domain and reboot the site using a similar design and ideas – for example, if they concentrated on on the Simpson’s, would i be able to?

Is they any backlash with this? once a domain has been bought by someone else, does the old owner have no legal feet to stand on and cant tell me that ive copied ideas etc.

Thanks for your help.
Just to let you know.. “name.com” is just an example name given. Its not the domain i would like.

So i can run it but have to make the design diffrent somehow?

I DONT KNOW REALLY WHATS THIS MEANS SO CAN SOME1 HELP ME OUT?

I have had a domain name and a hosting plan for quite some time now and haven’t even done anything with it. It expires in early 2009 (I plan on renewing it).

Here’s the problem: I have been working on this site on and off since I got the domain and hosting but I cannot make up my mind! First, I wanted to make a site for MySpace layouts, graphics, codes, etc. After that, I changed my mind and decided that I wanted it to be about the American Government and all of the world conspiracies (like the New World Order). That passed quickly as now I have NO idea what in the world I want to do. I feel as though the first idea will take too much time (I’d have to make the layouts, graphics, and code them, plus add tons of codes) and the second idea I feel is pointless.

I have asked questions on Yahoo for possible website ideas but there is nothing that I find of interest. The whole purpose of this website was to help people out in some minor way (or spread some kind of knowledge) and also be compensated (through google adsense).

I have no idea what to do. Any ideas? Specific ideas? Please.

basically i’m a freelance designer. my previous portfolio used to be www.ameen.net. lol my name is ameen so that was the obvious choice. yday i did a facelift for my web site which is this.

http://razorameen.deviantart.com/art/Razor-98705701

but i realized that my domain had expired and its going to be parked for the next year. meaning i cant buy it for the prices i did before.

so here’s an oppertunity to get my self a creative domain name. something like 2advanced, fubon or iris.

if i pick the idea any of you guys chose. i will credit you for it on my site.

also you can take a look at some of my other designs on the above url
maybe something which emphersizes on Z or X or something

I want to purcahse a domain name but it is already in use. There is nothing on the website though. It re directs you to some other site so techinally, you can’t even pull up the domain I want to buy.

I saw who owns it but it seems like some large company. There is no specific name. They are based out of Arizona and when I put in their phone number, a ton of different things came up. Same with the address.

I found out it will expire in Jan 2009. How can I go about getting it? I’m just confused because it seems like it’s just not an individual owning it.
They have a private registration under.. www.domainsbyproxy.com
The website it brings you to also has nothing on it and it hasn’t been updated since 07 as well as the one I am interested in buying.
