Renewal
Well, I just renewed the domain name bovious.com for another two years. If the site disappears sometime in the next couple days, it'll be because I screwed something up probably.
The renewal was ...not streamlined. Some company called accountsupport.com now handles renewals; I had no idea how I registered the domain name (that was years ago!) but that name didn't ring a bell, so when I started getting e-mails from them about my domain expiring, I figured they were spammers. Then my hosting company referred me to them when I tried to renew.
None of the e-mails from accountsupport.com gave a URL for renewing. None of them explained that you had to have an account with some outfit called bizsupport.com in order to manage your account through accountsupport.
Earning the right to pay some people money is like pulling teeth.
