Aart Bergwerff is a concert organist who uses his first and last name as the name for his website. At one point, it was time for a new brand identity and a new website. During the process leading up to this, something that happens frequently occurred - the registration of his domain name was not renewed and therefore expired.
The Case
It was quite a shock when my contact person for the website informed me that I had lost ownership of my domain name. You could say I was in a slight panic. I was also unfamiliar with things like the quarantine period and had no idea how the domain name market actually works.
The Solution

It's great to outsource certain things, but it's crucial to have a good understanding of how these things work. For me, my domain name is of inestimable value to me. I almost realised this too late.
