LESSON OF THE DAY - renew your domains before they expire

**gooddomains** · 10-19-2006, 05:56 AM

yeah, tell me about it

**CaptainHowdy** · 10-19-2006, 05:57 AM

Damm... Which was your registar?? Didn't you get emails from them??

**Tom_PM** · 10-19-2006, 05:58 AM

My registrar starts sending me "reminder" emails about 90 days before expiration, and sends them every 15 days or so.. It's so redunant that it's almost annoying, but I like it.

No need to bother with that if you have registar which protect your domain one year after expiration.

**KRL** · 10-19-2006, 06:01 AM

Good thing to do is keep all your expiration dates organized in a spreadsheet. But even then you can forget sometimes if you had an old e-mail address on the admin reg you forgot to update.

All my other domains are with directnic or godaddy and the email reminders always come in and there is never a problem.

CategorizedCunt was one of my older domains and I had it at http://www.allproregister.com/

Learned my lesson the hard way

Same here, if i receive a mail i renew it immediately

**OG LennyT** · 10-19-2006, 07:05 AM

my reg kicks ass and gives me reminders when under 90 days

**BIGTYMER** · 10-19-2006, 07:17 AM

I always get like 5 reminder emails if the domain isn't set for auto-renewal.

**spacedog** · 10-19-2006, 07:20 AM

depending on how long ago it expired, you can still get it back by filing UDRP with Icann

**Vlad** · 10-19-2006, 07:21 AM

one thing I know for sure !

registerfly sucks !

If you own alot of domains, it can make domain management difficult.

Try to pay your most valuable domains way ahead, 10 years is ideal, if you can.

If you have thousands of domains expiring at the same time, cost can become a major factor.

**free4porn** · 10-19-2006, 01:02 PM

**squishypimp** · 10-19-2006, 01:04 PM

thanks for the tip

**BAKO** · 10-19-2006, 01:13 PM

I just renewed all of my domains few days ago

**marketsmart** · 10-19-2006, 01:14 PM

you should always check...

**BlackCrayon** · 10-19-2006, 01:17 PM

that sucks. i've never lost a domain that way but did once when the registars website didn't work and i couldn't contact them.

anyways, i doubt if anyone picks it up it will have *that* much traffic. there is a 30 day period in which the website would of been unreachable before it expires to the point where you can no longer simply renew.

**pornguy** · 10-19-2006, 01:35 PM

I have the exp dates in my outlook calnedar, so reminders pop up.

**Dirty Dane** · 10-19-2006, 01:37 PM
