Its 4:45am and I’ve just completed purchasing a good name at TDNAM. I have to be quick with this post because I have a Snapnames auction thats about to end in 20 minutes.
Using Coupons At TDNAM
When you buy an expired domain name at TDNAM, you can use coupons to reduce the price you pay. The saving is on the 1 year renewal cost, so here is a list of coupons that I ran through a few minutes ago:
Coupon code: “gdbb776” made the 1 year renewal decrease from $9.99 to $7.50, while “cjcbentld” reduced it to $7.64 and “gdbb776” reduced it to $7.50. So take your pick.
Its important to note that these coupons didn’t work for me on a domain name that was listed by a 3rd party. But don’t let that worry you.
Advantages Of Not Buying An Expired Domain Name
One MAJOR ADVANTAGE of buying a name from a 3rd party is that you get to keep the entire history of the domain name. This is something to give serious thought to when bidding.
For the beginners reading this, I’ll explain what I mean. When you backorder an expired / expiring domain name from a backordering company, the domain actually expires and renews as a part of the drop process. As such, search engines tend not to keep their directory listings, cached web pages etc.. BUT when you buy a domain from a 3rd party, it’s not a part of the drop process. If the expiry date comes up, then you just renew it, like you would any other domain name.
The search engines keep all that valuable history, your happy - everyones happy. Now, time to monetize that new domain!
