Do you know a good service to register expired domains?
Not worth it anymore imho.
Expired is a great way to go if you have a lot of money for a good backorder service… if not, forget it. Don’t use the cheapies like godaddy… the scripts are inferior to other services.
Basically you need to go after hundreds of expireds just to land a couple. If you just target a few domain names, chances are increasingly rare of success because so many of us do backorder.
I have landed a PR-7 before and a few PR-6’s this way.

ok some say waste of time, some say not bad a thing to do.
I am really trying to find the answer to a web engines view of a new site uploaded with new content and how the linking algos work back
Bernie, lets just assume I have the domains or can get them easily so the acquisition part is not a problem.
When you have bought a domain PR7/6 when you have put up a new site, has the link value remained? If so has it just been for a few months till the next major update?
I know that there is much more to a site than links and PR, links being the most important part but its more than that, links from simalar content are worth more bacause of categorisation of the sites linking to you, and newness of links is a factor and a few other points
Amphex – waste of time? Dont worry I am not arguing the point but just trying to understand.
I have read a lot that, Goog in particular discounts backlinks on a newly registered site, that has just expired. I have also read a lot about if the “Whois info” changes after expiry, again classified as a 100% new site.
The part I am trying to understand if person A has a site, he sells it to person B of course this information is going to change so why penalise?
Scenario 2 – If a site expires and goes live again, why is it the assumption that it is 100% new – how many webmasters with a unique name forget to re-register? If people are linking to that site it is based on content, if after re uploading is still buildling new links it would seem a tough judgement on the engines part to penalise the site when the basis of a link should be down to the webmaster to ensure if it has given a natural “we like your site” link and if they dont check, well sorry tough (imho)
Like life you should double check who you vote for
There is so much BS talked about what engines like dislike etc..etc.. I would really appreciate people actual experience on this one.
So I can easily get some of these sites but until I install proper servers dont want to waste ££ on domain reg/hosting etc…
As I could invest that money in beer
So what do I do?
Beer or buy :cheers:
Make sure the backlinks to the expired domain are in the hundreds. Most webmasters will not be alterted to the fact that the website is no longer. The links will remain for a long time.
Try to get expired domains with listings in dmoz.org which takes its sweet time removing sites.
Try to get domains that are relevant to the new site. Not necessary but works the best this way.
PR should retain.
edited to add:
a) engage in a massive link exchange with relevant sites – pronto – build the momentum.
b) incorporate old websites keywords so you don’t loose SE listings the old site may have had.
c) make sure you launch immediately after obtaining the domain, don’t wait around for a week to make a site
perfect – thanks for the answer – I am only talking about sites with links in the 000’s
So will it give it a shot,

My bet is they were after the zone files to be able to track whois changes and tighten up on weeding out cases of expired domain snatching and spammers that keep building one network after the other.
I could be totally wrong here, but thats how I see it.
