Officials at Lemon Sponge Cake Contemporary Ballet in Boulder were shocked when they recently discovered that their Web site had disappeared off the face of the Internet. “We had bought the domain name from NameSecure, which is kind of ironic,” said Jenifer Sher, the ballet company’s executive director. “I guess it must have expired, but we didn’t receive any renewal notices.” To make matters worse, Sher couldn’t send or receive e-mails, because her address was tied to the Web site. Sher, who admits she isn’t tech-savvy, was flustered and in disbelief but unfortunately for her, this is a common issue that could have easily been prevented.
How do you prevent losing your domain name? Several simple but effective tips are revealed in an article recently published by Rocky Mountain News.
