Renewing a Domain Name
When you register a domain name, it is registered to you for a certain number of years i.e., until its Registration term expires. If you plan to continue using it beyond its Expiry Date, then you need to renew it.
You can renew your domain name from your Control Panel by following the below mentioned process:
Login to your Control Panel. 1
Search for the domain name and proceed to the Order Information view. 2
Click the Renew button.
NoteIf the domain name is Locked/Suspended, you will have to first get it Unlocked/Unsuspended it before proceeding further.
For Resellers: If the domain name is Locked by you, you may proceed without Unlocking it.
For Resellers: If the domain name is Locked by Makshi Infotech, you need to get it Unlocked first. Contact our Support Team at http://www.makshiinfotech.com.
For Resellers: If the domain name is Suspended by either you or Makshi Infotech, it needs to be first Unsuspended, before you can proceed.
Additional InformationFrom the Renew for drop-down box, select the numbers of years for which you wish to renew this domain name and then click Renew Domain Name.
Proceed to Pay for the Renewal.
The Renewal would be affected immediately.
If you wish to renew more than one domain name at a time, you may do so from the Renewal Management interface.
Additional InformationA Renewal action, once completed, can not be reversed. The only option would be deleting the domain name, in case the same is no longer required.
Additional InformationAs per the .UK Registry regulations, a .UK domain name:
can be at the earliest renewed only 6 months before its Expiry Date.
can be renewed until 90 days after Expiry.
can only be renewed for 2 years.
You will encounter the below error message in case the domain name is Locked/Suspended at the Registry (and not under our system):
Domain Status does not allow this operation.
In this case you are requested to contact our Support Team at http://www.makshiinfotech.com to know, the reason for the Lock/Suspension and how the Lock/Suspension may be removed.
