Below are some of the reasons you shouldn't allow your host to get expired before renewal;

1. Your SEO rank on search engines drop

Once your web hosting expires, your website becomes unavailable to search engines and visitors. This automatically results in low search engine rankings. This means that when people search for your website or business on google and other search engines, they may not find it on first-page search results. This is harmful to the overall health and well-being of your website.

2. Your website gets suspended

Allowing your website hosting to expire could find you in a tight corner. Whogohost gives you a grace period of 30 days for an annual billing plan while 15 days grace period is given for monthly and quarterly to make payments [This is the suspension phase]. During this period, your website displays some kind of error message or a message that asks the site owner to contact the hosting company ASAP. The bad thing about this is that website visitors get to see this. And this is not good for your brand reputation. 

3. The website is not available to visitors.

This is based on the previous point. When your hosting expires, your website visitors will not be able to view your website content as they will be greeted by an error message. this can make you lose new & potential customers to your business.

4. Website content may be lost if you do not have a backup

Your website content, as well as your database, are at risk if you allow your web hosting to expire. This is possible when there is no backup and the hosting payment is not made. It is best that you avoid this costly situation by paying for your hosting service

5. Your domain will no longer be able to connect with the files that make up your website and the site will shut down, much like a disconnected phone line.
