WHOIS Privacy Protection

If you run an online shopping portal, which accepts payments, it’s mandatory that you offer your web site visitors a safe payment information submission page. And this is where SSL certificates come into play – they encrypt the connection between your website and the client. Usually, you need to go to a 3rd–party supplier to get an SSL. This isn’t the situation with Grand Island Web Hosting.

With us, you’ll be able to enable a standard SSL certificate or even a wildcard SSL certificate directly from your Control Panel.

By locking your domain, you’ll be able to safeguard it against unsolicited transfers. By doing this, any person who attempts to start a transfer of your domain to a different domain name registrar will be automatically blocked.

The domain locking/unlocking option is available in the Domain Manager section of your Control Panel. Simply select a domain name and then click the Registrar Lock icon to lock/unlock it.

Each domain name registrant is required to present detailed and correct registrant contact information. This is the so–called WHOIS info. Since it must be as up to date as possible, it often needs to be modified. And in case you need to modify the WHOIS information for more than one single domain at the same time, this may be a rather hard procedure.

Through the Domain Manager interface, you will be able to easily modify the WHOIS info for one or multiple domains at the same time. All changes will be reflected live almost immediately.

Thanks to our Domain Manager, you can effortlessly administer multiple domains from just one place. You’ll be given access to an immense set of DNS controls and will also be able modify plenty of domain names at once.

With the Wildcard feature available in the Domain Manager, you can make all the hosts that you have got under a certain domain name open the index page of your site.

This functionality can be very useful if you want to install a multi–site application on your website, or if you want a particular subdomain to point to the index page of your web site.

You can activate a wildcard domain with a click of the mouse from the Control Panel–integrated Domain Manager. You just have to hit the Add Host button on the right and you’ll notice the Wildcard option at the bottom of the dialog box.

In our Domain Manager you can find a user–friendly tool, which will enable you to filter out your website traffic on the basis of the visitors’ physical location. With Grand Island Web Hosting’s GeoIP location tool, you can effortlessly configure location–based redirects and redirect people to different areas of your web site. For example, you will be able to redirect the US visitors to your home page, and the visitors from Spain to a subdomain – es.your–website.com, for example.

With this intuitive tool, you’ll no longer need to fill dozens of lines of code in your .htaccess file. Everything’s carried out by the tool itself.

Registering several domain names at the same time can often be a challenging operation. This is the reason why our company offers a bulk domain name registration tool incorporated into our web hosting Control Panel. It enables you to quickly register many domains at the same time.
