Turn on auto-renew for your domain today
An expired domain takes your website and email offline, and someone else can buy it.
When a domain expires, your website and your business email stop working. If it isn't renewed in time, anyone can buy it, including competitors and people who sell expired domains back at high prices.
- Log in to the company you bought your domain from.
- Turn on auto-renew for your domain.
- Check the payment card and the email address on the account are current, so you see renewal notices.
Make sure the domain account is in your name, not your web designer's.
