I forgot to renew my domain name!

If you missed our renewal notices, all is not lost. If you bought a domain through us, this is the typical proression: For the first 5 days after the domain expiration date, there is a "grace period" when the domain stays active. Then it goes down, and it parked up to Day 18 after Expiry. If it is still not renewed, it goes into a Redemption Period until Day 60, and will cost a lot more to get back. After that, it could spend up to 18 more days in a Pending Deletion stage, when anyone that may have backordered it can snatch it up. If no one has backordered, it will then be released for reregistration by anyone that wants it. Obviously, the ideal is to renew it with the first 5 days. Sometimes, the best/fastest solution to a lost or inaccessible domain name is to buy a new one.
