I was just stumbling around and checking the expiry dates of famous domain registrars like Godaddy, NameCheap, etc. Most of them have renewed the domains for several years but I found something interesting, Namecheap renewed its domain for only one year. Quite confusing, isn’t it? Of course NameCheap will renew the domain and I am not posting it here because someone should try to grab it (that will be lame) but I just found it interesting. Apparently, they ran out of money :-p
Following is the list of some famous domain registrars and details* about their domains.
