+title: "Whoops, time for a site revamp!"
+date: 2025-09-24T11:39:43+01:00
+draft: false
+---
+
+Whoops! An expired debit card of mine caused the domain [michaelpercival.xyz](michaelpercival.xyz) not to auto renew, and there's a hefty premium if I want it back.
+
+{{< img src="/assets/whoops.png" class="left-image">}}
+
+In retrospect I hadn't paid attention to this site in a while; I barely stay on top of the SSL certs. Henceforth, [michaelpercival.dev](michaelpercival.dev) will be the primary domain (email [m@michaelpercival.dev](mailto:m@michaelpercival.dev)). I also still have [michaelpercival.com](michaelpercival.com) as a backup, which redirects to the same site.
+
+I'll be doing some small site revamping to help keep more more on top of things going forward, and will be moving away from [namecheap](https://www.namecheap.com/) to a domain registrar that doesn't engage in these kinds of shenanigans.
+
+I'm sad to see it go, but lesson learned!
