It is so risky that when your domain expired. Sometime even you may loss your domain name forever even you have the money .
Choose the right registrar of hosting provider is important.

However, a bunch of other GoDaddy applications/features which previously had been free were also auto-renewed – didn’t appreciate it.

After that – turned off auto-renew. GoDaddy and BlueHost send plenty of reminders.

If you just put 10 million, don’t you have to be a bit concerned about your money?

I like to hand-renew ours, but I admit that a time or two we’ve cut it pretty close.

It’s height of ignorance – thats all I can say.

The number can’t be much… How do you forget one of the most important basics of your online business? Crazy stuff!

GoDaddy offers this auto-renewal option, maybe they should look into that. 🙂

It happens from a friend of mine who didn’t recover his domain after not renewing it. Thing is the new domain owner is selling the domain for thousands. Sucks big time!

A domain name is like the building that houses your shop. It is an essential asset. And in the same way you have to remember to pay your rent, you have to renew that domain name.

Perhaps website owners should put the renew date in their calendars. And have it set to auto-update as well.

Quote: “Luckily for Foursquare, registrars like GoDaddy tend to give you several notices before they pull down your domain and actually put it back up for sale.” Lucky me too registering with Godaddy.

Anyway, that is describing the importance of auto renew.
