Protected Registration - The most secure domain ownership protection available. Keep your domain private, locked and protected!

Add Protected Registration to an existing domain

It happens hundreds of times every day - and it could happen to you!

Your credit card expires. You change your email address and don't update your domain contact information. Someone close to you, or a social engineer, transfers your domain name away without your permission.

When the domain name goes, everything else goes, too!

One oversight and you could lose the domain name you worked so hard to get. That means any Web site or email services associated with it will stop working.*

Even huge corporations fall prey to these problems!

In 2004, email service at The Washington Post was disrupted after its domain name was shut down because the company failed to renew its annual registration. And when a multi-national accounting firm failed to renew the domain name for their educational Web site (due to a clerical error), a pornographer grabbed the domain. While the accounting firm eventually retrieved the domain (for an undisclosed price), the damage had already been done, resulting in shocked parents, teachers and children.

Protected Registration is packed with the safeguards and security you need:
  • Exclusive! Domain Ownership Protection:
    • Expiration Protection protects you from credit card expiration, failed billing, or outdated contact information.
    • Deadbolt Transfer Protection: makes it impossible for MOST transfers to occur -inadvertent, accidental, malicious or otherwise.

Learning About Domain Names

 

What happens if my protected domain expires?

If your name expires without your renewal, we place your domain in an inactive protected status for up to 12 months. This protected status keeps the domain in your name; however, it does not keep your related services (such as hosting and email) up and running should your domain name renewal lapse.

You can rescue the domain while it is in this inactive, protected status for the cost of domain name renewal.

What is Protected Registration?

Protected Registration is a premium service that you can apply to most of the domain names you purchase or already registered with us. It helps ensure that you retain ownership of your domain name, regardless of expiration dates or attempts to transfer. With Protected Registration, you receive:

Domain Ownership Protection
Protects you from losing your domain because of a credit card expiration or failure or if you forget to renew your domain or change your contact information. If you fail to renew your domain name, we hold it for up to one year. During that time, it is placed on inactive, protected status with a parked page. We do not keep your related services running if your domain renewal lapses. To rescue the domain, pay the renewal fee.
Deadbolt Transfer Protection
Puts your domain on lockdown, making it impossible for any inadvertent, accidental, or malicious transfer. Unlike regular domain locking, which occurs at the registry level, Deadbolt Transfer Protection offers an even higher level of security — we lock your domain in your account.
Ownership Protection Reports
Annual domain status report and email updates help you keep track of vital domain information.
Private Registration
Typically when you register a domain, your contact information is publically available. Private Registration shields your personal information from public view. You control who reaches you and when.
Business Registration
Business Registration offers you a complete, online advertising listing that is instantly available to everyone who searches for your domain name in the Whois database.

To ensure that you receive protection for your domain name, a domain that has Protected Registration applied to it cannot be set to manually renew.
