Domain Name Registration > Registering
and Renewing Domain names
Should I enter valid contact information when registering a domain name?
ICANN, the governing body for domain names, requires valid Contact Information
for each domain contact (Registrant, Technical, Billing, and Administrative).
If you enter false information, your domain name will be cancelled.
Your contact information is public and is made available through the
WhoIs databases of most Registrars. However, we do offer a solution to
help protect your privacy. You can register your domain name with us
using our private domain name registration services.
When you purchase our private domain registration services, the WHO-IS
directory lists Domains By Proxy’s name, postal address, and phone
number instead of yours. Although Domains By Proxy is the registrant
of your domain name registration, you still retain the full benefits
of domain registration. You can:
- Cancel, sell, or transfer your domain name registration.
- Revert the Registrant listing for your domain name registration back
to you.
- Renew your domain name registration when it expires.
- Designate the name servers for your domain.
- Resolve claims arising out of a dispute involving your domain name
registration.
