When you register a new domain, the WHOIS info pertaining to it, by rule, becomes instantly available to the general public. In the Domain Manager integrated into your Control Panel, you will find a WHOIS protection feature that can help you hide your private details by substituting them with our own contact details.

The WHOIS protection feature is available with the majority of the domain name extensions offered on our site: .com, .info, .biz, .net, .org, .co, .co.za, .me, .tv, .pro, .cc.

A 24/7 technical support service is included in our domain management package.

For example, if you desire to update the nameservers for your domain name, but are not aware of how to accomplish this, just let us know and we will lend you a helping hand.

You can reach our customer service team members via e–mail or via the client support ticket system. You can also use the phone or our live chat service during working hours. We offer a 1–hour technical support ticket response time guarantee.

With the Wildcard functionality available in the Domain Manager, you will be able to make all the hosts that you’ve got under a given domain name load the index page of your website.

This functionality can come into play when you’d like to install a multisite app on your site, or when you’d like a given subdomain to forward to the home page of your web site.

You’ll be able to add a wildcard domain name with merely a mouse click via the Control Panel–integrated Domain Manager interface. You just need to hit the Add Host button located on the right and you will notice the Wildcard option at the bottom of the dialogue box.
