What is the Domain Snapper?
The Domain Snapper is a new service to backorder domain names that are already registered. This is not a service to register available domain names. Once you have placed your backorder, The Domain Snapper will then continually monitor your domain name, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and will deduce when your domain name is due to expire, and attempt to register the domain name the millisecond it expires. The Domain Snapper is not forgetful, and doesn't take breaks or have holidays - its goal in life is to register your domain name for you. Please note however, there can only be 1 person allocated for each domain, so don't risk losing out - place your backorder today.
Why should I backorder a domain name?
Do you find yourself continually checking to see if that special domain name is available? Have you had your heart set on a domain that perfectly matches your business but is already registered? Let the Domain Snapper take over - place your backorder today for peace of mind, with the knowledge you are getting the best possible chance at securing your domain name. Perhaps you're involved in the domain industry? From as little as $11.99 AUD per year for the Domain Snapper service, why not try your luck at some of those premium domain names you've always dreamt of.
Why can't I just check myself?
Of course you can, however in this growing and vibrant .au domain space, you cannot be sure you will be the only person trying to register that domain name. Imagine your disappointment when your domain name finally becomes available, only to find that it has been snapped up by one of your competitors. The Domain Snapper significantly reduces this risk. Using our advanced technology, and in partnership with auDA accredited .au registrars such as Netregistry, PlanetDomain, MD Web Hosting and more, we have the ability to check, and register, faster than any human can.
How much does it cost?
You can order the Domain Snapper to monitor your chosen domain name for the following length of time:
If the Domain Snapper successfully registers your domain name, you will be required to pay a domain name registration fee of $44.95 AUD which covers the cost of your domain name license for 2 years.
Are there any exclusions?
1) The Domain Snapper will not attempt to register domain names that are in pendingDelete status. Domains in this status may have been deleted for breach of an auDA published policy, which could have legal ramifications for future owners. Further information about this and other domain statuses can be found under auDA's Domain Renewal, Expiry and Deletion Policy.
2) The Domain Snapper will only begin domain monitoring from 17:00 AEST (or 18:00 AEDT) the following business day (excluding any Australian state public holidays) from the time the order is placed.
