So, I have a domain. It recently came up for renewal, and since I am developing it, I thought I'd pay for 5 years. I couldn't find the option so I called Netfirms and told them what I wanted, and they said I could only renew for 1 year! I did.
I have my hosting with ixwebhosting and I recently got the same domain, but with .org (I already own .com). So, I decided I would simply re-direct the .org to the .com, but it turns out you can't re-direct you need to get hosting...
Obviously, I am not a happy camper. I got yet another domain with godaddy recently and they even re-directed it for me after calling me to offer me a hosting plan.
So, I thought, I should just transfer all my domains to godaddy and keep my hosting elsewhere to be safe... Ideas?
Do I really own these domains or are the hosting companies the real owners? Maybe its just like who owns your home, you or the gov't? To find out don't pay your taxes for a few years...
