What Happens if I Don’t Renew My Hosting?
If you don't renew your web hosting plan, your website will go offline. This means that visitors won't be able to access it. But that's not all. When your hosting plan expires, you may also lose any data or files stored on the server. This could include important information, website backups, or customer data. Therefore, it's important to renew your hosting plan on time to avoid disruptions to your website and ensure your visitors can continue to access it. Please don't wait until the last minute to renew your plan, as it could take some time for your website to come back online after it's been taken down.

If you have received a reminder from BRAND to renew your plan, it's important to take action as soon as possible. Delaying the renewal process can result in your website being taken offline, which can be a frustrating experience for you and your visitors.
