Domain Name Help

[suarve]

Hi,

Have never had to do really do the following

The .com version of my employers .co.uk domain is currently registered, but for the last couple of months there has been no site on the domain, just a registrar advertising page.

Say I wanted to contact the domain owner would I simply email the admin email address for the domain? What stuff should and shouldn't I be asking?

I domain lapses in about a month too, but wanted to get in there early.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

EDIT: also slightly off topic I have another question. I recently acquired a domain name that is similar to the main site but has some better keywords in the name. For SEO, is it best to simply redirect traffic going to this domain to the main site, or host a copy of the site on that domain too.

Anyone?

Have you done a WHOis search on it? Might give you information about the domain and the registar so you talk to them about purchasing it.

Yer, I already did a whois. Just wondered exactly what to say in the email

You can assign multiple domains to a site.

Didn't know that, will ahve a look.
