How to not pay absurd redemption fee to Godaddy.

If you are like me and let one of your domain name lapse and are now being held hostage by godaddy who are now holding your domain for an absolutely unimaginable $100 ransom (oh yeah, its still extra on top of that to actually renew it for another year) and don't want to be blackmailed into paying the exorbitant ransom amount, then I will share the way to circumvent the backmail and get your domain name back without paying the ransom.

Its actually very simple.

Since Godaddy decided to hold your domain hostage and rip your off with $100 fee, they forget one thing. These domains are supposed to just be released back into the wild when they expire, so by holding it hostage, they are actually having to keep the domain in your name. So you still technically control it. They are betting on the fact that you are too stupid to realize this, and will just pay the ransom.

Simply go to any other domain registrar and register an account so that you have somewhere to send the domain name to. I use namecheap because they have good coupon codes and a really easy transfer service with excellent support.
Go into your domains settings in the godaddy control panel. You can still change things there even if its "expired" due to the fact you still legally own it, not them.
Find the "Release for transfer button" and release the domain from your godaddy account. This will generate an "activation/transfer" security code. This may take a few minutes to actually complete. Make sure to go back in there and force the release to start to make the whole process instant instead of waiting a few days.
Then go to your new domain registrar and supply that activation/transfer code to transfer the domain to your account there instead. This usually costs only $7.99 for .com domains and includes a free year of registration.
NOW YOU CONTROL YOUR DOMAIN AGAIN WITHOUT PAYING THE $100.00 RANSOM! And you also got another year of registration.
This entire process only takes about 15 minutes to happen. And you regain full control of your domain.

If you love Godaddy even though they just tried to extort you, you could actually pay another $7.99 to transfer it back to godaddy just for fun if you wanted.

Moral of the story is, by holding the domain ransom and trying to extort you, they are actually leaving you in control of the domain, they just hope you don't figure that out.

Have fun!
