WHOIS Privacy Protection

If you have an Internet shop, which accepts credit card payments, it’s crucial that you offer your site visitors a secure payment info submission page. And this is precisely where SSL certificates come into play – they encipher the connection between your website and the customer. Generally, you have to go to a 3rd–party provider to buy an SSL. That isn’t the situation with HD Web Hosting.

With us, you’ll be able to obtain a common SSL certificate or even a wildcard SSL certificate straight from your Control Panel.

In our Domain Manager you’ll find an easy–to–work–with tool, which enables you to filter your traffic in accordance with the visitors’ physical whereabouts. With our GeoIP location tool, you will be able to quickly configure location–based redirects and point visitors to specific sections of your web site. For example, you can send the US visitors to your index page, and the visitors from Spain to a sub–domain – es.your–website.com, for example.

Thanks to this easy–to–use tool, you no longer need to add dozens of lines of code in the .htaccess file. Everything’s done by the tool itself.

Your domain goes hand in hand with the registrant, admin and technical contact information that you supply during the registration process. Since this info must be precise and up–to–the–minute, you must have a way to edit it, if needed.

You can accomplish that through the Domain Manager in your Control Panel. Just select the domain that you want to edit the registration information for and click the Edit WHOIS button. All the modifications that you make will be updated live momentarily! You will be able to also change the WHOIS records pertaining to numerous domain names at once.

Within the Control Panel there is a point ’n’ click domain administration interface that has tons of controls for managing multiple domains simultaneously. You will be able to effortlessly set up sub–domain names, redirect sites, update the name servers or the WHOIS information associated with a domain, create custom DNS resource records and more.

Aside from the basic domain controls, in the Domain Manager you’ll also find an option to hide your registration information using the Whois Privacy Protection functionality as well as to protect your e–shop’s monetary transactions with conventional or wildcard SSLs.

We grant you complete control over your domains’ DNS resource records. From the Custom DNS section of the Domain Manager, you’ll be able to alter different DNS records for a selected domain. These include A, AAAA, MX, NS, SRV, CNAME and TXT resource records. To add a new DNS resource record, simply select a domain and then specify the new value in the corresponding DNS record field. To modify the DNS resource record – click on ’Modify’; to go back to the old value – click ’Revert’.

Via the GeoIP location tool, also included in the Custom DNS section, you’ll be able to present a particular language version of your website to visitors from a given geographic area.
