Domain Kiting

Domain Kiting refers to the process of registering a domain name, deleting it within the 5-day add grace period (AGP), then immediately registering it again for another 5-day period. This cycle can be repeated over and over, resulting in the registrant owning the domain name without actually paying for it.  This act was frowned upon by most and was curbed in 2008 by new policies set by ICANN and several domain name registries.
