  Is it possible to reinstate my website to TODDDEAL.COM or is that domain name gone for good?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Howdy –

  It’s not possible to register TODDDEAL.COM as new. It is already registered through https://www.namesilo.com/ . Does this look like your site? http://www.todddeal.com/

  Thank you. No, someone else took that domain. I wonder if I can buy it back from that company that has it now? This is what TODDDEAL.COM used to look like:

  todddealdotcom.wordpress.com

  Hi there,

  It looks like domain squatters got a hold of the domain, which means that you will probably have to pay quite a bit of money to get it from them. You can reach out to them and see how much they are willing to sell the domain to you for, but it definitely won’t be the price you initially purchased it for.

  So, it’s a matter of how much value you want to place on the domain vs. registering a new but similar domain for cheaper.

  Hope that helps.
