Domain Names by Hosting Smiles

When you register a domain, the WHOIS information associated with it, by rule, becomes immediately available to the public. In the Domain Manager incorporated into your Control Panel, you can find a WHOIS protection option that will help you conceal your private details by substituting them with our own contact information.

The WHOIS protection option is available with most of the domain names offered on our web sute: .com, .info, .biz, .net, .org, .co, .co.za, .me, .tv, .pro, .cc and .we.bs.

Through the Custom DNS Records section of the Domain Manager, you’ll able to change all the DNS resource records for your domain with merely a single mouse click! All common types of DNS resource records are supported, including A, AAAA, MX, NS, CNAME, SRV and TXT records. All you need to do is fill in the new value for the DNS record that you want to add or update, click the action button and allow some time for the new DNS resource record to be propagated around the world. Another alternative is to revert a DNS record to its old status.

Additionally, if you desire to make your web site’s nameservers resemble your domain, you can achieve that with merely one mouse click via the Domain Manager.

Working with our Domain Manager is really easy, no matter if you have one or multiple domain names to manage. Via its simple–to–use interface, you can pick numerous domain names at a time and renew them (for one or several years), update their name servers or update the WHOIS info pertaining to them immediately.

In case you also have a hosting account with Hosting Smiles, you’ll be able to administer both multiple domain names and multiple web sites at once from one single place.

Within the Control Panel there’s a point & click domain name administration interface that has lots of features for administering several domain names at a time. You will be able to easily set up sub–domain names, forward sites, edit the name servers and the WHOIS records associated with a domain name, set custom DNS records and much more.

Apart from the standard domain controls, in the Domain Manager you’ll also find an option to mask your domain registration information by using the ID protection feature and also to protect your e–commerce portal’s financial transactions with regular or wildcard SSLs.

In case you run a shopping portal, which accepts credit card payments, it’s crucial that you offer your website visitors a safe payment information submission page. And this is precisely where SSL certificates come into play – they encipher the connection between your site and the client. Often, you have to go to a third–party vendor to order an SSL. That is not the situation with Hosting Smiles.

With Hosting Smiles, you will be able to order a generic SSL certificate or even a wildcard SSL certificate straight from your Control Panel.

You will be able to park a registered domain name by pointing it to one of Hosting Smiles’s two domain name parking templates – For Sale or Under Construction. The domain name parking process is quite easy and will take effect instantaneously. You can park as many domains as you desire. In case you want to to un–park the domain – you can carry out this procedure with merely a click.

Moreover, you can modify our two domain name parking templates using custom text and images to make them more unique.
