What Happens When a Domain Expires?

Once a domain passes its expiry date, your website and email can stop working. After a grace period, the domain may be released back to the public or auctioned.

Simple Ways to Protect Yourself

• Enable auto renewal with a valid payment method.
• Register domains for multiple years at a time.
• Keep your contact email address up to date with the registrar.

Monitoring Critical Domains

For important brands, consider setting calendar reminders, using domain monitoring tools or even splitting key domains across different registrars for redundancy.
