WHOIS Privacy Protection

The best way to protect your online shop is to activate an SSL certificate for your domain name. It will attach ’https://’ to your domain name and will inform your potential clients that your online shopping portal is secure enough to buy from. Through the Domain Manager section of your Control Panel, you will be able to quickly request a common or a wildcard SSL certificate for your site.

You only need to press the Order SSL Certificate button, specify the type of SSL certificate that you prefer and fill in the necessary information. We’ll then get back to you with your certificate’s details in no time.

You will be able to easily upgrade the domain management account that you have with siteHostel to any of our cloud hosting plans. In this way, you will be able to effortlessly administer both your domain names and sites from one single location. To enable all the web hosting options in your Control Panel, simply visit the Upgrade Plan menu on the left and choose the plan that you want to upgrade to.

The second we activate the selected package, you’ll get a bunch of tools, including a drag & drop File Manager, a hotlink prevention tool, a URL redirection tool, a comprehensive web traffic statistics tool, a 1–click Web Applications Installer with which you can publish online journals, social networking sites, online photo galleries, and so on.

A 24/7 technical support service is included in our domain name management package. siteHostel’s techs are prepared to assist you with any problem that you might have registering, transferring or managing your domains. For example, if you want to alter the nameservers for your domain, but aren’t aware of how to accomplish that, simply tell us and we will lend you a helping hand.

You can get in touch with our help desk staff members via e–mail or through the trouble ticket system. You can also use the telephone or the live chat service during work hours. We offer a 1–hour technical support ticket response guarantee.

The domain name redirection tool that is included in siteHostel’s web hosting Control Panel permits you to forward a domain or a sub–domain in your account to a different website of your preference. You just have to define the host you intend to to forward as well as the destination path itself. Our system will take care of the redirection and your domain name will start to point to the new location immediately.

The tool sports an intuitive interface, so you will be able to forward a desired domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks of the mouse instead of making elaborate modifications to the .htaccess file.

The Domain Manager is part of our web hosting Control Panel and offers all the features that you need in order to manage your domains. It has an easy–to–work–with interface via which you can manage DNS records, update WHOIS data, lock your domain or create subdomains with merely one single click.

From the Domain Manager you could also request additional services like Whois Privacy Protection and Secure Sockets Layer certificates.

With the Wildcard option included in the Domain Manager, you can make all the hosts that you’ve got under a particular domain name open the index page of your website.

This functionality can come in real handy when you’d like to install a multi–site app on your website, or when you need a specific subdomain to direct to the main page of your site.

You’ll be able to add a wildcard domain with a mere click from the Control Panel–integrated Domain Manager. You simply need to press the Add Host button located on the right and you will notice the Wildcard option at the bottom of the dialog box.

The WHOIS info for your domain contains your official contact details and it has to be kept up to date all the time. In case your email address changes, or you want to transfer the ownership rights over your domain name to somebody else, you will need to alter your current WHOIS information straight away.

Through the point ’n’ click Domain Manager tool, you’ll be able to easily change the WHOIS information for one or multiple domain names at the same time! All the modifications that you have made will be updated online instantly! Please don’t forget that not all domain extensions support this functionality, so first check on our web site whether or not this feature is offered for the domain that you want to update.
