A few weeks ago, I thought I had lost my website completely.
What started as a simple attempt to revisit an old project turned into a lesson about domains, hosting, digital assets, and resilience.
What Actually Happened
After digging through old accounts and emails, I discovered that I still owned the domain name. The real issue was that my website hosting had expired.
At first, I assumed the entire project had been lost. However, I soon learned an important lesson: owning a domain and hosting a website are two different things.
Although the website files were gone, the domain remained active and under my control.
Lessons Learned
This experience taught me several valuable lessons:
• Always keep track of hosting renewals.
• Maintain regular backups of important websites.
• Separate domain management from website hosting.
• Starting over is easier when you retain the lessons learned.
