1. If you are not there already, go to the Domain Name Auction home page in your web browser.

2. In the Manage Your Account section, enter your username and password, then click the Login button. Your auction account page opens.

3. Click the Your Bids button at the top of the page. The Your Bids page opens.

4.To increase your bid on a domain, click the radio button beside the domain name, then click the Place a Higher Bid button. The Place Bid page opens.

5. In the Place a Bid section, enter the new amount you want to bid in the Your Maximum Bid Amount field, then click the Continue button. Now review and confirm your bid amount.

6. Accept the amount displayed, or change it, then click the Submit Bid button. A page opens displaying a confirmation message.

Subsequently, during the live auction, the Domain Name Auction service’s proxy bidding system will bid up to this new amount on your behalf. Once the current bid amount exceeds your maximum bid, the system will no longer place bids on your behalf. Repeat these steps to increase your proxy bid amount.

You will be notified by email if you are losing an auction, that is, when you have been outbid by a bid greater than your current proxy bid.
