Hi,

Does anyone know of a website that will watch a domain for you, and if it becomes available, automatically register it for you on your behalf? There's a domain I'd like to have that is becoming available soon (if it isn't re-registered that is, which I suspect it may not be) so I'd like to have a service watch it for me ...

Thanks in advance all! :cool:

there's something called domain parking...a lot of registrars can do that for you (it's usually not free)

domain parking is something else in my opinion.
(under construction place, when you got a domain and don't have a website).

recently i found what you are looking for...
but forget the url. sorry.
try a searchenigne

needcgispace, you are missing the whole point of the thread. I've quoted and high-lighted some parts that are important. See if it makes sense, but if not, check the sites mentioned and you'll know what he's looking for. :D

i've used snapnames.com to register r4f.com (to go with r4f.net) - this cost $35 (which includes a years registration with enom) and it worked very well.

has anyone used expirefish.com and registered a domain?
is it really only $9.99 with a years registration - whats the catch ;) ? - ah! you also have to pay $9.99 a month!

cheers
