how is it when I search for a domain and come back it's registered

[Kev]

This has happened to me a few times now. I go search for a domain,try find the best one available for the site I have planned, I come back next day it is registered.

[webcamhostess]

Not sure but I had it happen to me one time

You can't fuck about you find one you like you get it there and then ! I have known some where you find a good one then refresh the page and it's been registered withing fucking seconds now that is bullshit.... I have all mine with what most consider as being a bit of a dodgey cvompany but I can say this when I search they come up with some fucking awesome sugestions and also they are still there to regester no matter how many page loads later.
So if I was you I would be changing who you search for and buy domains with, that would be my advice !

who you registering with and do you think the registrars go a head register the domain you searched for so they can sell it back?

What AndyR said

It wouldn't surprise me if they have an algorithm running in the background that says if 10 or more people search for a particular domain then book it (or at least alert the webmaster to book it). That way they have something to sell

This has crossed my mind before and now I feel it is probably a fact.

don't search a domain. just buy it. registars buy searched domains and over price them

Their cost is less than the end user pays so it is easy money for them

If they do this then it is not just sneaky but bad business

It would not be hard for a registrar to code a script to automatically register domain names that have been searched 'X' number of times.

Not at all and I bet they have been doing it for years

[deviantz]

Whoa I never thought of this

[Big MOE]

Do all registrars do this?
