When a domain name expires, there is a time period of a little over eight weeks when it's not active, but may still be renewed by the current owner. During this time period, the domain cannot be taken by anybody else, but in case it isn't renewed, it goes into the so-called Pending Deletion period that lasts five days. This is when ICANN-accredited registrar firms accept backorders for these domains. If a given name is backordered, the registrar will make an attempt to register it for the customer right after it is deleted and accessible to the public, which gives people the chance to get a short and easy to remember domain that may have been employed by somebody else until now. If the domain is quite attractive, a number of companies could try to register it in the same time and due to the fact that this happens on a first-come, first-serve basis, there is no warranty that a specific person will have that domain name. Nonetheless, employing a backorder service will give you a better chance to end up getting a specific domain than if you attempt to register it personally.
