Anyone buying a domain name from any provider is required to provide correct contact details which are then added to the public, globally accessible WHOIS database. This information is often used by third parties for spam, scams, and selling on. You can prevent your contact details being listed in this way with our Domain Privacy service.
If you’re buying any .UK domain name (ending .uk, .co.uk, .org.uk, .me.uk) and you’re a non-trading individual, you can hide your contact details from public view for free from your control panel.
Registering a domain name with another extension? We’ll show secured contact details instead of yours when you add our Domain Privacy service to your domain name.
Domains are registered at registry level as soon as you complete the checkout process with us. It can take up to 72 hours for a domain name to become visible on the internet as it globally updates. This applies for all domain names regardless of extension or registrar. However, in the majority of cases
your domain name will be live within a few hours.
You don’t have to buy web hosting with us, but we strongly recommend it to take advantage of our powerful hosting platforms and seamless, trouble-free services that have all been carefully developed to work well together. You can find out more about our web hosting plans on our Web Hosting page.
You own your domain name and therefore have full rights and control over it; we never register customer domains in our name.
Your domain name is set to renew automatically so you don’t have to worry about remembering it yourself! If you prefer not to auto-renew, you can change this from your control panel.
We have a range of guides and tutorials available for you via our support database. We also provide personal support just for you via your control panel – just get in touch if you need some help!
