Domain Life Cycle Time-Line |
The typical life cycle of a domain name can be unpredictable and difficult process
to follow. Here we've tried to simplify what generally happens with COM, NET and
ORG names to make it easier to understand.
This graphic gives you an idea of the steps involved and will help you understand
what you need to do to acquire and protect domain names of value. Note that the
times indicated are not always followed by all parties. For example, some names
expire, but are not deleted from the registry for days or months afterward. Others
are removed right away. This is one of the reasons it is so important to renew your
domain well in advance.
|
|
1. Available |
|
Five days after the end of the redemption period the domain name will be deleted
from the registry and will be made available for anyone to register. |
|
2. Registration |
|
A domain name may be registered for up to a ten year period. Even upon renewal the
domain name registration period can not extend past a ten year period. |
|
3. Active |
|
Active for 1-10 years. Original registrant recieves renewal notices as expiration
date approaches. |
|
3a. Renewal |
|
When the domain is about to expire here comes the time to renew the domain for another
period of time which can be again 1-10 years. |
|
4. Expired |
|
No response from registrant. Registrar may send delete command to the registry at
its discretion (Normally 19-29 days). Shortly after the domain name goes past its
expiration date the domain name will be deactivated. All domain services including
the web page and email will no longer work. The domain may be renewed during this
period. |
|
5. Redemption up to 90 days |
|
After the 19 day "Expired" period, the name may go to the redemption tab for up
to 90 days. The domain may be renewed by it's original owner by paying a service
fee plus the normal renewal fees. |
