NET::ERR_CERT_DATE_INVALID means your SSL certificate expired or the visitor's clock is wrong. Check certificate validity via browser padlock, renew through hosting dashboard if expired. For visitors, sync computer clock to automatic time. NameSilo Turbo Hosting includes free auto-renewing SSL.
If someone buys your expired domain, they're the legal owner. You can negotiate a buy-back, file UDRP (requires trademark), or rebrand. Forgetting to renew doesn't entitle you to reclaim it. Enable auto-renew and maintain account funds to prevent this entirely.
Custom domain emails go to spam without SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication records. Google's 2024 requirements mandate all three. Add TXT records from your email provider to DNS, then warm up sending volume gradually to build domain reputation.
Transfer away from GoDaddy by first downgrading Domain Protection, then unlocking and requesting your EPP code. Approve the release email to complete the move in 5-7 days. Your website stays online throughout. Transfer to NameSilo for lower renewals and free WHOIS privacy.
Website not loading without WWW means your root domain lacks a DNS record. Add an A record for @ pointing to your host's IP, or set up a 301 redirect from root to WWW. These are technically separate addresses requiring individual configuration.
Set up custom nameservers by registering glue records with your registrar. Glue records map ns1.yourdomain.com to IP addresses at the registry level, solving the circular DNS lookup problem. Essential for agencies and resellers wanting white-label DNS branding.
Stop domain spoofing by implementing DMARC with p=reject policy. Add a DMARC TXT record to your DNS instructing email providers to block unauthenticated messages. Start with p=none for monitoring, then escalate after verifying legitimate senders pass SPF and DKIM.
WHOIS updates instantly at your registrar but takes 24-48 hours to appear on third-party lookup tools due to caching. Enable WHOIS privacy for instant masking. Complete ICANN verification within 15 days after changing registrant email to avoid domain suspension.
Force HTTPS redirection after installing SSL to stop "Not Secure" warnings. Use cPanel's Force HTTPS toggle, add .htaccess redirect rules, or install a WordPress plugin. SSL enables encryption; redirection enforces it. Both are required for full security.
