There is an old saying, "Experience is the best teacher."

It's very true, isn't it?

I've read countless articles on renewing my domain name.

They all say the same things:

*It is your responsibility as the domain owner to get it done.

*An expired domain name is available for registration by anyone else. Someone who will benefit from your links and your search engine ranking without paying for them.

*Your web site is no longer accessible to your customers.

I knew what to do and I knew how to do it - but I didn't do it.

I let my domain name expire.

My web site was down for two days while I waited for the name to be reactivated.

My email didn't work.

I don't know how much I lost in sales.

So now I am going to challenge the old adage and hope that you can learn from my experience.

Don't make the same mistake I did. Don't disrupt your business because you let a date slide by.

Most domains are leased for one year, although they can be pre-paid up to a maximum of 10 years.

If your web host doesn't have a notification service and you don't know when your registration expires, visit http://www.internic.net/whois.html and look up your expiration date.

To renew your domain name registration, just visit your web host's site and follow their instructions.

It literally takes just a few minutes and believe
me - you'll be glad you did.
