Godaddy Domain Renewal Coupons for 2018

Godaddy offers lucrative deals for new domain registration but not so much for domain renewals. If you are looking to keep your domain for the long term, it is a good idea to register a domain name for few years at a time. This way, you don’t have to worry about higher renewal prices. However, if your domain is up for renewal and you are not having any luck getting Godaddy domain renewal coupons, worry no more, you have come to the right place.

Are Those Coupon Sites Any Good for Finding Godaddy Domain Renewal Coupons?

If you are looking for a renewal coupon for Godaddy, don’t waste your time on coupon sites. Most coupon sites are run by affiliate marketers who get a commission by referring you to Godaddy’s site. As a result, you will see that the coupon is cloaked with a link to Godaddy. The coupon is reveled once you click on the link. Then you try to use the coupon but Godaddy says that it is invalid.

So, avoid the coupon sites altogether if you are looking to renew. The coupon sites are good for new registration though. However, if you are already a customer with Godaddy, finding a working coupon can be difficult. You may have to use sign up using another username and use a different payment method to make a coupon work for new registration.

Where is the Best Place to Find Domain Renewal Coupon for Godaddy?

Believe it or not, the best place to find a domain renewal coupon for Godaddy is actually in your mail inbox! That is correct. When you first registered your domain with Godaddy, you pretty much automatically signed up for their email newsletter. The chances are, your inbox already has a truckload of promotional emails from Godaddy. Keep an eye on those emails. Once in a while, Godaddy actually offers renewal coupons to its customers.

Yes, your domain expiration date may not have arrived at that time, but if you are planning to keep the domain name for a while, just go ahead and renew ahead of time using the coupon. Trust me, the coupon for renewal is very rare. If you are a multiple domain name owner, go ahead and renew them all using the coupon code provided by Godaddy.

What if You Just Can’t Find a Renewal Coupon Code for Godaddy?

Though finding a renewal coupon for Godaddy can be tough, but it’s not the only way to get a discount in your renewal. There is another legitimate way of scoring a deal. Here’s what you have to do:

  • Login to your Godaddy Account.
  • Have your account PIN # ready. This can be obtained by clicking on your name (located on the top right corner) and selecting PIN: View. Note it down.
  • Proceed with the renewal process for renewing your expiring domain name.
  • In the checkout screen, you will notice Contact Us 24/7 link on top of the page. Click and start a Live Chat session.
  • Inform the agent that you are thinking of moving to another registrar as the renewal rate is very high. The agent will offer you a discounted renewal rate. Savings can be from 10% to 20%.

Take Advantage of Dropped Shopping Carts

Godaddy has a feature to recover dropped shopping cart items by following up with the customer and offering incentives to continue with the order. In order to take advantage of this, simply add your domain name to the shopping cart for renewal and proceed to the checkout screen. Do not complete the order. At the checkout screen, close the browser window and abandon the ordering process.

After about 24 hours, you are likely to receive an email from Godaddy to pick up where you left off. They will also offer you a discount coupon valued at 25% or more. This work with ordering new domains as well.

What if You are Not Happy With the Renewal Offer from Godaddy

It is possible that you are not offered a good renewal rate from Godaddy. In this case, think of transferring your domain name to a new registrar. There are several registrars who provide cheaper price and similar reliable service as Godaddy. In fact, after you transfer your domain name to another registrar, you can transfer back to Godaddy at a later date for a much lower price. This way, you save money each year.

By transferring your domain name over to another reputable company, you won’t lose any of your domain name settings as the new registrar will carry over your current DNS settings to their server.
