Learn to register, transfer, renew, and protect your domains and WHOIS info with these essential guides." vertical: "Hosting" date: "2025-07-08" last_modified: "2026-07-02" --- # Domain Registrations While DNS management focuses on directing traffic, the “Domains” section of your portal is all about the ownership and administration of your domain names themselves. This is your central dashboard for registering new domains, managing renewals, and handling transfers to or from other registrars. A domain is your unique identity on the web, and properly managing its registration is critical for your online presence. Learn how to update your official contact information (WHOIS), protect your personal data with privacy services, and manage the domain’s lock status to prevent unauthorized transfers. --- Domain Registration Articles 9 results This collection of articles serves as your central resource for registering and renewing your domains. - ## [Change Your Domain Name Contact (WHOIS) Information](https://docs.nexcess.com/hosting/portal/domains-and-dns/domain-registrations/change-your-domain-name-contact-whois-information/) Anyone can access domain info via WHOIS lookup.
