Domain renewal is the extension of a domain name registration for the next period (typically 1 year or more, depending on the domain zone rules). After renewal, the domain remains active, and you keep the right to use the domain name.
In simple terms, renewing a domain means paying for the next period so the domain does not expire and become available for others to register. It is recommended to renew in advance and watch registrar notifications to avoid website/email downtime and the risk of losing the domain.
It is extending a domain’s registration for the next period so the domain stays active and remains yours.
It is best to renew before the expiration date. This helps avoid website/email interruptions and reduces the risk of complications if the domain enters expiration or deletion-related statuses.
The domain may enter an expiration period and later become unavailable for your website and email. Eventually it may be deleted and become available for others to register. Rules and timelines vary by domain zone and registry.
