What are expired domains?
Domains that are not renewed or dropped by their owners without continuation fall into the category of the expired domain.
There is a time period the expired domains can be renewed by the owners and if they do not do that, the domain is available to be registered and owned by a new person.
There are domain snippers like Saket Wahi and Kasun Sameera who wait for the moment the domains are dropped by their owners without renewal and they grab the opportunities.

- Bad backlink profile domains
Those are the main aspects to look at when considering investing in expired domains.
Try to look for shorter domain names with you can build a brand on. Those domains are high in demand.
For example, a domain name like clickdo.co.uk is versatile and ideal for many online services and that’s why the person who has registered clickdo.com is asking for a huge sum from me to resell the domain even though I own the ClickDo™ brand name online with the trademark.
Don’t be stupid to invest in domains names/titles that someone has a trademark for, because no one will buy it and you can’t even set up a business on such domains.
The current owner of the clickdo.com domain firmly holds on to it and keeps on renewing it year after year. He’s done so for the last 5 years now thinking that I pay him his asking price. **If you read this, email him or show him this article by checking clickdo.com
