Sending expired domain inventory through SnapNames — Radix begins

.Website domain names are the first of the firm’s domain names to be available through SnapNames.

Fresh top level domain name firm Radix has struck a deal with SnapNames to send expired domain name inventory through the auction platform.

.Club was the first fresh TLD I’m aware of to capture value from the expired domain name stream this way.

First up for Radix is .Website, with over 3,000 domain names now available for bidding. Backorders start at $69, and if only one person backorders the domain, they get it for that price. Otherwise, it is sent to an auction.

A number of potentially valuable domain names are open for backorders, counting many three number and three letter domain names.

SnapNames will also hold auctions for .host, .press, and .pw in the future.
