The cost of inaction: Why domain neglect could be costing you more than you think


A domain expires unexpectedly. A critical site goes down. A bad actor buys a lookalike and redirects traffic. Or worse—customers lose trust after a phishing scam that could have been prevented.

The risks of domain neglect are rarely visible until the damage is done. And by then, it’s too late.

In one audit, more than 25% of domains reviewed had expired or were set to auto-renew on incorrect credit cards. In another, 40% of listed admin contacts no longer worked at the company.

What we’ve learned is simple: the companies that treat domains like digital infrastructure, not just marketing assets, avoid these issues altogether. They gain security, operational control, and often find savings along the way.

That’s why Ilkari offers more than just registration—we provide audits, strategy reviews, and digital intelligence to help you secure, streamline, and future-proof your domain portfolio.

Neglect is expensive. Clarity is powerful.
