You have probably heard about backorder domain lately, everybody talks about backorder domain, but no one tells how to do it.

Since the birth of Wix, backorder seems to be the new trend of the year, but how to do it?

Until a few years ago, anyone who wanted to do the backorder domain (recovering an expiring domain), followed the domain daily through the NIC in Pisa or the various Whois around the net. You can easily understand that such a job takes away an enormous number of hours.

Everyday you needed to be careful and wait for the right moment to register the domain. For a lot of domains with automatic renewal, this strategy turned out to be a huge waste of time, a true waterhole.

Nowadays, with the coming of services for backorder domain, things do not work out that way anymore. Trying to challenge a backorder service on its own battlefield is really unthinkable, so it is better to adapt ourselves to it.

Once signed to one of backorder domains in Italy (Wix the most famous), we will find at our disposal a very large variety of expiring domains, among which we will be able to select the one we will like the most. A domain list characterized by expiring domains of very high quality and old age.

Once selected the domain, to do the backorder we will just have to make an offer for it and wait for its recovery; in case that we will not be able to do the backorder domain or in case that someone made a higher offer for that domain, we will not have to pay a single euro cent to the service.

Based in Los Angeles, the international features agency, Incredible Features has chosen MomaPIX as its web management and sales platform.

Rome, 8 march 2010 - In the early days of August 2009, Stacy Linh, Incredible Features’ Creative Director, found a message in her mailbox entitled “MomaPIX - the service tailored for photo and video agencies”.
Mistaking it for spam which escaped the control of the corporate firewall, Stacy was about to delete it when her curiosity was aroused by the title. She opened the message and began to investigate. From that day on, the relationship between Stacy and MomaSoft has been uninterrupted.

After the first email, asking for clarification, MomaSoft immediately sent an invitation to a web meeting for a presentation of the service.
Stacy said, “In September we spent a week in which we met on the internet every day, sometimes the meetings lasted for hours sometimes it took a few minutes. I realized that I was dealing with people technically valid and seriously involved in seeking appropriate solutions to my needs.”

Incredible Features offers a unique collection of still and moving images for editorial and commercial usage. Stacy was looking for a means to permit the agency to manage and sell both videos and photos. A month after the first email, in September 2009, Stacy decided that the time was ripe and so left Los Angeles and went to Rome for 4 days where they set up the final details and signed the contract.

Some days ago, we asked to Stacey to comment on her choice and on what has happened, six months after the contract signature:

“When deciding to update our agency website, we chose the Momapix system because of its built-in features and the ability to customize it to suit our specific needs. The Momapix team has been stellar and instrumental in supporting our growth”

Thanks to this agreement, MomaPIX continues to strengthen its role as the company to look to for all those agencies seeking a valuable new partner in enhancing the value of their photographic and video assets on the web.
