Expiring Domains
When a domain owner fails to pay the renewal fee for a domain name it goes through an expiry process before eventually becoming available to the public to register again. The whole process can take several weeks. * Initially, services to the domain are suspended although the owner may then pay the renewal fee to reactivate the domain name. * Next, the domain enters a redemption phase where the original owner can pay a redemption fee (higher than the normal renewal fees) to reclaim the domain
