Domain Name Registrations and Transfers |
|
Product Overview
Domain name registration is the process of reserving the rights to an Internet domain for a predetermined amount of time. Domains are generally registered one—10 years. A domain transfer moves the registration of a domain name from one registrar to another.
The following domain extensions (i.e., top-level domains (TLDs)) are some examples of extensions currently available for registration and/or transfer:

How It Works
The domain name registration process begins with a search for available names. Once a domain has been registered or transferred an intuitive interface allows the registrant to perform all domain-related maintenance functions.

Private Domain Registrations |
|
Product Overview
Private registration allows you, as a domain name registrant to keep your personal information out of the Whois database, thus shielding your identity from the public eye. Private domain registrations are managed through Domains By Proxy®, which is also the entity whose contact information will appear in the Whois database for the privately-registered domain. You retain all rights to the domain registration; Domains By Proxy simply serves as the intermediary (or “proxy”) between the domain registrant and any outside correspondence.
Customer Benefits
- Registrant's identity not available to the public.
- Registrant's personal information cannot be captured and exploited.
- Shields registrant from Whois database mining (i.e., the process of scouring and collecting data for personal or commercial purposes)
- Patent-pending e-mail forwarding system filters domain-related spam.
How it Works
During the domain name registration process, you may choose to make the registration private. The Domains By Proxy Web site allows private-registration customers to modify account settings, track domain-related correspondence, etc. |
