Domain Tasting

Domain Tasting is the practice of registering a domain and evaluating its profitability during a refund period. If deemed unprofitable, the domain is returned for a refund.

More About Domain Tasting

Initially, domainers took advantage of the ICANN grace period, which allowed them to return domains within five days without incurring costs. During this window, they’d assess the domain’s potential for generating ad revenue. However, due to the rampant misuse of this system, many registrars now impose fees to deter excessive domain tasting.
