    My domain expired and I want to renew it, but when I go to search for that domain name again it is telling me that it is taken? I type in sheiphan.com in a new tab and it says server DNS address cannot be found. What do I do? I need that doman!

    Expired means over, dead, done ie. complete. One cannot renew anything that has expired. Please read Domain Expiration

    It seems you are asking Staff to recover an expired domain.

    Our records show that sheiphan.com expired on 17-sep-2016.

    Domain expiration is a lengthy and complicated process that takes about 80 days. During this time, your domain may be put up for auction or sold on back-order.

    You can learn more about domain expiration here:

    Domain Expiration

    The good news is that we may still be able to recover your domain if it has not yet been deleted or purchased by someone else.

    A late renewal fee of $80 will be added to the regular price of renewal. This fee is charged by the domain registry and is not one that we can waive. The total price will be $98, which is $18 for the regular renewal, plus the $80 late renewal fee. If you do not wish to pay the $80 fee, you may let the domain expiration process continue and attempt to register the domain again at the regular price, once it has completely expired.

    Please note that someone else may purchase the domain first, in which case you will be unable to register it again.

    Please let me know what you would like to do.
