Most of you webmasters run several sites,
and own dozens or 100's of domains.

I nearly lost one of my main domains
because i forgot to check the expiery
date.
I only noticed when someone icq'ed me
to tell me my host/site was down, i checked
some of my sites and all seemed ok and then
i found it

lucky just in time

ever lost a domin because of that ?

Never. I've always gotten an email & a hard copy snail mail when it's time.

Trax · 01-11-2002, 01:41 AM

you know why?? because i get an email 30 days before a domain expires

yup. also, i've paid up all my important domains for the next 10 years. probably overkill, but one less thing to worry about.

but what if you get whacked in gay drunken bar fight two years from now? All that extra money down the drain!

I know alot of people hate them but NetworkSolutions/Verisign is allways good about notifying you like 60 days in advance via email and even snail mail several times. These little fly by nighters don't do that.

But do they actually let you renew your domains, or does their screwed up system decline every card you give it..?

Lexxx · 01-11-2002, 04:53 PM

I remember I had lost an OK domain back in the early days of the net, sex.com or something... I forgot about it and it was gone like a wind...

On a more serious note - I use (have used) Register.com and they not only notify you by e-mail (US mail is only thru DirectNIC/NEtwork Solutions) but they ALSO re-register it for you if you forget to do it manually. It costs $34.99 for a year though... so better not forget. I was not pleasantly surprised when 50 or so domains got renewed at $35 a pop...

And those snail mail ones uggh - I got a renewal letter for like AnalNastyCumLickingSluts.com sent to my house a long time ago - that was embarassing then. haha

Snailey · 01-11-2002, 09:14 PM

I forgot once and had to pay $250 to buy it again ( that guy didn't check the traffic , luckily ) . Now I have everything writen down in a calendar . Hey guys , fuck the NetSolutions , nowadays you can have domains below $ 10/year . Even directnic became too expensive .
