Absolutely — and here’s why it matters.

Your domain name is the gateway to your website and email. Outdated or incorrect details can cause serious headaches — even the loss of your domain.

✅ In this episode, Charly covers:

  • Why you must have access to your registrant email — it’s used for critical domain notifications and renewals.
  • In Australia: why your ABN must be current and correct for .com.au domains to remain compliant.
  • How to check where your domain is registered — and why knowing this can save you time and money.
  • Don’t wait until your domain is about to expire or gets locked — keeping your details accurate is one of the simplest ways to protect your online presence.
