Your domain name is currently on REDEMPTION HOLD status.
This domain name most likely expired and was deleted as part of
our standard
registration expiration policy.
The central registry has adopted a "Redemption" program
in order to assist
with domains that are unintentionally deleted. All domains that
are deleted
are placed into redemption status for 30 days prior to becoming
available
for registration. If, during that time, the previous owner of the
domain
wishes to regain ownership, it can be restored for the restoration
price
of $120 plus the price of a 1 year renewal.
IF YOU ARE THE OWNER OF THIS DOMAIN, PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THE
FOLLOWING:
To restore your domain under the Redemption program, log into the
domain
manager and click on the 'Restore Your Deleted Domains' link.
While you also have the option to wait the 30 days and re-register
your name
then, we STRONGLY recommend that you do not. ANYONE may register
your
domain name at that point. There are many companies that participate
in what
is called the "Secondary Domain Market". The "Secondary
Domain Market" is
comprised of all sorts of companies that attempt to purchase domain
names
that have expired at the very instant they become available for
registration.
In the situation where someone else registers your domain, you only
have a few
options to get the name back and each can take great lengths of
time and will
typically cost more than the Redemption program fees. The central
registry
created the Redemption program because of these reasons.
