[[Drop-Catching]] is the process of registering expired [[domain name]]s by means of automated systems within a short period of time (even a fraction of a second) after being canceled by the registry. Simply put, the auto-registration of domains in the moment of their deletion. Drop-Catching is performed by various companies known as "drop-catchers". The process of drop-catching is different from registering expired or new domains. The main objective of drop-catching is to secure expired domain names once these are dropped from the domain [[registry]]. This process depends on instantaneous actions, so [[domainer]]s must act as soon as possible in order to secure these domains. | [[Drop-Catching]] is the process of registering expired [[domain name]]s by means of automated systems within a short period of time (even a fraction of a second) after being canceled by the registry.
