NameJet are increasing backorder prices — SnapNames and

Fees go up by $10 next week.

SnapNames and NameJet are increasing their fees to catch pending delete expired domain names.

The sites will increase their minimum fees by $10 to $79.00 on Tuesday, July 19. The fee increase will not apply to domains by now ordered at the $69.00 price.

SnapNames and NameJet pooled their resources earlier this year to go following pending delete domains.

SnapNames is 100% owned by Web.com (NASDAQ:WEB), and NameJet is a 50/50 partnership between Web.com and Rightside (NASDAQ:NAME).

SnapNames states the fee increase is necessary as it invests in more resources to catch these expiring domains.

Catching fully-expired domain names requires a combination of lots of registrars and sophisticated timing.

NameJet by now increased its pending delete backorder prices earlier this year when the partnership with SnapNames was disclosed.

Some competitors offer lower pricing for drop catching.
