Re:How to Prevent Website Downtime Due to Domain Expiration? by victor_vad on Saturday June 15, 2024 @03:16PM (#40692026)
Hello Hacker News community,

Recently, I missed a domain expiration. As you may know, when a domain is in the redemption period, it costs about x5 the renewal price to recover.

I'm curious to know how you prevent such situations. Do you have any strategies or tools for tracking domain expiration dates and preventing accidental lapses?

I've created a tool that helps monitor domain expiration dates and sends notifications about upcoming expirations. I'd love to hear about other solutions or practices that community members use to prevent downtime.

I would appreciate your advice!

Why not just use auto-renew?
