What is an expired Domain?

An expired domain is a domain name that was once registered and active but has not been renewed by the owner, causing it to become available for registration again.

Why Domains Expire

Non-Renewal: The most common reason is that the domain owner forgot to renew it or chose not to renew it.

Project Completion: Sometimes, the project associated with the domain is completed, and the owner no longer needs it.

Financial Reasons: The cost of renewal might be too high, or the owner might not see enough value in keeping the domain.
