An entity who registers a domain name is
not required to use it for any purpose (for example, creating a working
website) within any particular time period. The registrant can choose whether,
how and when to use a registered domain name. If you enter a particular domain
name in your browser and it turns up a blank page, it could mean that the
registrant is holding the name in anticipation of future use, or is holding it
defensively (to keep anyone else from obtaining it) or is not making active use
of it for other reasons. A registrant can also choose to use a domain name for
email purposes only, without developing a website. If you think that the
current registrant is not using the domain name, you can attempt to contact the
registrant to see if it might wish to sell or transfer the name to you.
However, the registrant has no obligation to do so.
