  Hi,
  Your blog appears to be in the redemption period. Note that there will be an additional $80 fee imposed by the registrar if the domain is able to be recovered. If you wish to proceed, add “modlook” to the tags of this forum thread and a staff member will be around to assist.

  Our records show that thebottomcorner.com expired 48 days ago on 2015-11-27.

  Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 80 days. During this time, your domain may be put up for auction or sold on back-order.

  You can learn more about domain expiration here:

  Domain Expiration

  The good news is that we may still be able to recover your domain if it has not yet been deleted or purchased by someone else.

  A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by the domain registry and is not one that we can waive.

  The total price will be $98, which is $18 for the regular renewal, plus the $80 late renewal fee. Please reply back if you have submitted the payment so that we can begin the recovery process.

  If we are unable to recover your domain, your payment will be refunded. If you do not wish to pay the $80 fee, you may let the domain expiration process continue and attempt to register the domain again at the regular price, once it has completely expired.

  Please note that someone else may purchase the domain first, in which case you will be unable to register it again, but if you prefer this option, just let us know and we’ll be happy to provide you further instructions.

  Let me know if you are willing to pay the late fee and renew the domain.

  Good news! We were able to recover your domain name.

  I’ve emailed you privately to handle the renewal and redemption fees so we can restore the domain to your account. Please let us know if you don’t receive the message :)
