A Dropped Domain refers to a domain name that was not renewed by its owner and has been released, making it available for re-registration.
More About Dropped Domains
When domains aren’t renewed, they first enter a grace period, followed by a redemption phase. If still not reclaimed, the domain is eventually “dropped” or released back to the public pool. Such domains can be valuable, especially if they have a history, and are often quickly picked up by investors or those who recognize their potential.
