how to rebuy my domain
Hi I used to have a domain <myname>.com registered with Google domains. It expired last month and i deleted it from the google domains dashboard because I wanted to buy it from cloudflare. However <myname>.com is still showing unavailable on both cloudflare and squarespace (redirected from Google domains). I also can't renew my registration because it was deleted from Google domains. What are my options now to reclaim/reregister the domain?

for .com though you might want to monitor it closely as some people / organization will backorder expired domains to extort money from those who just forgot to renew them
transferring is always the best move if possible
https://auctions.godaddy.com and https://dropcatch.com are where domains with any sort of value usually end up
GoDaddy Domain Auctions
GoDaddy Auctions is the place to go for great domain names that are expiring or have been put up for auction. GoDaddy Auctions makes it easy to get the domain name you have been looking for.
@conqr I can see it listed in dropcatch. I guess the only option now is to wait and hope i'll be able to buy it back later. @はるか The domain is deleted from my google domains dashboard. Is it even possible to do a transfer atp?
No, it's probably in the redemption or drop period
If it's on dropcatch and it has significant value to you, I suggest you purchase it there
hmm it is my name but i don't think it's worth the purchase rate and the hassle of getting it back. I should just buy a .portfolio domain or something
That's certainly a good alternative
Thanks for all the great advice
