Ensure that you have sufficient funds in your prepaid account to cover the renewal cost. DNS is de-activated on the date of expiry at the registry level. Renewing the domain will reactivate it. You will need to allow at least 48 hours for normal re-propogation of the domain, so that others may see it. The system is not fully automatic, so for now the process is a bit cumbersome.
All sales are on a first come first served basis.
Email our customer support, with your userid and the desired name. If the name is available, then it is renewed for a 1 year term, and transferred to your account. The dns will NOT work for at least 48 hours, and you need to reset the dns after 24 hours to your name servers.
