Domain Email Notifications: Hover Does It Right

One of the things I like about using Hover for domain registration is how easy it is to manage email notifications I receive.

They’re one of the few domain registrars I’ve used that make it quick for me to:

  1. Find the section in my account information
  2. Customize the settings

I wish more domain registrars paid as much attention to organizing, structuring, and labeling content in customers’ accounts.

Once I log in to my account, I choose:

  1. Settings > Notifications
  2. In Domain Notices section, I change my reminder options

I decide how many pre-renewal reminder and post-renewal notices I want to receive.

What I like about Hover’s Domain Notices section setup:

  • Clean layout, lots of white space, clear labels in their interface
  • Choices allow me to quickly change/update options
  • Changes are automatic, no need to select Save to save my selections

Since I retired from web design and development work in December 2022, I don’t spend a lot of time with domain names anymore.

Small details matters.

I appreciate Hover’s focus on customers in creating an interface that is understandable (don’t make me think!), clearly labeled, and doesn’t require multiple steps.
