Does anyone have any experience in getting a domain that's due to expire soon?
I'm mildly interested in securing a domain that's due to expire soon, currently registered with GoDaddy.com.
I'm not interested in paying over the odds for it so wondered on the best way to proceed. Should I just keep my interest quiet and wait to see if it gets dropped and becomes generally available, or should I try and place it on backorder through godaddy? Do expired domains genuinely end up back in the pot or do registrars hold onto them for themselves to resell?
I found this interesting piece on securing domains about to expire, but as it's quite old now I'm not sure how relevant the advice is today:

Again, I'm only really interested if it becomes available, not in entering into any auction or buying it from the owner if it gets renewed.
Any advice from anyone that's been through this process recently, maybe with a godaddy registered domain?
Thanks for any advice.
