Craig Campbell SEO Highlights the Importance of Protecting Domain Names and Online Reputation

However, he also bought the domain to demonstrate the consequences of letting domain names expire to his audience, and to educate them on the importance of looking after your online reputation. Once your domain name has expired, anyone can wreak havoc with your online reputation and even redirect your old domain to a competitor (indeed, Campbell has redirected the newly purchased domain to the page of someone Farage dislikes – Michel Barnier). That's why it's best to keep old domain names active until they dry up, so you can protect your online reputation.

Taking advantage of expired domains

High-profile people and companies let domains slip all too often, leaving plenty of opportunities for people to jump in and buy them at auction for their own purposes. Often, their reasons behind buying expired domains are related to the backlink power of such domains, or they might want to redirect the site either for backlink purposes or simply to prove a point – or for more nefarious reasons such as messing with a company's online reputation. Expired links may also be purchased with the aim of selling them on for profit, which can be pretty lucrative.

Protecting your online reputation

As you can see, it's important to look after your domain names and ensure they don't expire and fall into someone else's hands. By keeping your old domain name active, even when you're using a new one, you can prevent reputational damage and fines for data breaches. The registration fees are a tiny investment to make to ensure your online reputation remains intact, sparing you some stress and misery. Here are some extra ways to make sure your domain is safe:
