Re: forgot to renew domain

you may be out of luck. If someone else bought the domain.

Once domain expires if someone comes along and gets it then it belongs to them.


So you may have to purchase another domain now.


From what I see the domain was purchased from somewhere in Canada but hosting not sure where it is hosted.


Should have kept better track with your domain and your hosting so could renew even if were going to be away.

But once a domain expires it is up for grabs.


Unless someone else had the domain along with you or something.


You can try opening a support ticket to bravenet if your site was hosted here.

Hi Remi,

From looking at your whois.net information it looks like you transferred your domain name. It looks like you still own it until March of 2012, but you moved it to another company - Domain Registry of Canada.

Sounds as if you have been tricked.

I nearly got caught like that but because my domain was not due for a couple of Months I did a bit of checking and found it was a company similar to the one you mentioned. lucky there
