hi

i forgot to renew my domain yesterday (it's my fault i simply didn't redirect a email i never used)
anyway my domain expired today

when i look at whois it is still mine. when i want to order again i get info that domain is busy. when i call the registrar nobody pick up phone.
is there any way to get this domain back as quick as possible?
i have a lot of freesites on it so i wanna get my traffic back and don't want to blacklisted for redirecting or something.

It gets locked the day it goes expired.

Hopefully you have a good register. Drop them an e-mail and also keep on trying to call them.

I believe it will be in a "pending delete" status, but you'll have the option to still renew it.. but at a higher price..

My registrar begins emailing about 90 days before expiration which outlines the process.. it's something like $95 I think, but I am *not* sure if I'm remembering correctly, so dont' despair.

Good luck

Lucky you!

It should teach all of us to make sure that all contact details with our domain registrar are always up-to-date, and to keep domains locked! ...and maybe set all domains to automatic renewal!

Yep, this is a good policy! Especially on your good domains that you are already using
