* " What is the
Redemption Period? "
-: If you haven't yet heard about the redemption period, it's a "
grace period" of up to 30 days that begins once a domain registrar deletes a domain name. This deletion normally occurs sometime within the first
45 days after a name expires without being renewed.
Instead of actually being deleted and
re-available for registration within a few days, what happens is the
central VeriSign registry holds the name in a new "REDEMPTIONPERIOD" status. The grace period basically gives the original domain owner a chance to renew their domain name.
After the
Expired period, a domain goes into a second stage called the redemption (or On Hold) period. For
30 days, the original domain owner still has the option to
renew the domain name.
