My website expired and then godaddy registered it??

@natecox @astraluma how would i buy it back?
@esther_alter godaddy runs a service called “DNS broker”, which is explicitly for buying domains “already registered” (in this case, and probably most or all cases, owned by them). They want you to go there and ask to buy it back.

@natecox ugh ok that was the only option I saw. I was hoping for something else. Should I expect to pay a “broker fee” plus an inflated price?

@esther_alter yes.
Godaddy is like the DNS mafia. They should be shut down for market manipulation.
Fuck godaddy.

@esther_alter @natecox the grace period for a .com is 30 days..then it should have a 30 day redemption period. (Where only you can re-register, but often at a higher price) are you saying you let it go for 60+ days?
If that's not the case you might have a bigger complaint on your hands

@ahasty @esther_alter grace period isn’t a constant across registrars, I’ve used one or two across the years that both wouldn’t send renewal emails and gave no grace period. I think name.com may only be five days.
name.com has also been accused of domain tasting before. Wouldn’t surprise me if they aren’t going out of their way to protect their customers.

@esther_alter @natecox I do find it odd that the domain appears to be still pointed to Name.com DNS. While registered with godaddy....at least.from what I looked at on my phone.
This is not a serious company???

@esther_alter @natecox they have a recover expired domain faq but if that doesn't work...you might have to buy it from the scalpers

@esther_alter This is horrible, but in case it hadn't occurred to you you can buy a new domain and hook it up to your website really simply. Just grab subalterngames.net or something. That will let you have a website while you get this sorted out.

@negative12dollarbill the problem is the variety of sites that point back to the old name. I was actually planning on getting a new domain and making subalterngames redirect to it. It’s just gross and awful. I’ve had that site since 2012

@esther_alter did you contact name.com support?

@negative12dollarbill no but if sounds like that’s the first step. I’m going to bed now and I’ll do it in the morning. Thanks you and everyone else for the advice

@ahasty @esther_alter I also use cloudflare domains these days. Treated me well so far.
