Domain Manager New Updates
Publish Date: Wednesday, August 27, 2008In order to keep our web hosting system always up-to-date and highest quiality, we run regular updates and improve our software and account management tools. The latest update we've made concerns the Domain Manager available to our clients in their Web Hosting Control Panels for managing their domain names.

To provide more detailed information about the statuses of our clients' domain names and further facilitate the domains' administration, we have updated our Domain Manager to show four new statuses that will help our customers easily renew their domain names even after a domain's expiration.

The statuses will be displayed with type icons, opening tooltips with detailed explanation about each of them. From the Expiration/Renewal column of the Domain Manager our customers will be also able to open other tooltips providing options for according domain action.
Domain statuses overview:
Redemption period - a period of up to 30 days after a domain name's expiration. During this period the domain name owner can retrieve the domain name from deletion and renew it against a small redemption fee. In all such cases, automatic renewal option will be displayed in the Domain Manager's Expiration/Renewal field. In calculating the final price of the domain's renewal, the redemption fee will be added to its renewal price. The customer needs to open a tooltip of the domain name in RGP (Redemption Grace Period) from the Expiration/Renewal column of the Domain Manager. There will be displayed the option to retrieve the domain name and renew it.

Extended redemption period - a grace period of another 7 - 30 days when the domain name can be retrieved from deletion and renewed. The renewal however cannot be automatic in this period and the domain name owner needs to contact our supports team with renewal request. 'Open support ticket' option will be displayed in the domain tooltip opened from the Expiration/Renewal column of the Domain Manager.

Pending delete period - this is rather informative than requiring any action, since during this period the domain name can be neither retrieved, nor renewed. It only shows that the domain has been blocked by its Registry and will be returned in 3 - 5 days back into the public pool of domain names.
Released from registry - this status shows that the domain name is now released for public registration. An option will be provided in the respective Expiration/Renewal Domain Manager field with registration of the domain name preserving its old WHOIS information. The previous domain name owner can take advantage of this opportunity and newly register the domain name. If the domain name has already been taken, an option with new domain name registration will be offered to the customer.

Enjoy your domains' management with our newly updated Domain Manager and expect more interesting introductions coming soon!
With compliments, from Lonex Web Hosting
