Expiration Dates with domains registered with GoDaddy*
- On the expiration date the domain stops working
- Expiration date - 18 days. You can renew with no extra fees
- 19 days - 42 days: Domain goes into aftermarket auction where you can get domain for $80 plus renewal fee
- 43 days and beyond: Domain is given back to registrar (neworksolutions) and the domain name can not be recovered. You must wait for domain to become available again and re-purchase. There is no guarantee you will be the first person to try and buy it. Best option is to go to network solutions and purchase their service to back order the domain name. Do this with networksolutions and godaddy.
