WHOIS Privacy Protection

An SSL certificate encodes the connection between your clients and your web store and informs everyone that it is a dependable place to purchase from. You would ordinarily obtain an SSL certificate from a third–party provider. However, at Finest-Host, you can get one straight from your hosting Control Panel.

Simply go to the SSL Certificates section and choose if you need a common SSL certificate or a wildcard SSL certificate. After that request an activation and we will carry out the rest on your behalf immediately.

With Finest-Host, you can easily prevent your domain name from being taken away without your knowledge by "locking" it at your current registrar. This will not affect the way the domain works in any way, but will momentarily stop all domain transfer requests.

In case you need to transfer your domain, you can just unlock it. Locking & unlocking a domain name is extremely easy and involves just one single mouse click.

The Domain Manager gives you the option to address a specific audience on the basis of its location. Using our GeoIP redirection tool, you will be able to effortlessly point the visitors coming from a specific geographic location to a particular part of your web site that is focused on their demands. For instance, if you desire to have a French version of your web site, you can set up a sub–domain fr.your–website.com and utilize the tool to forward the individuals coming from France and from the French–speaking countries around the world to this sub–domain.

The GeoIP redirection tool sports an intuitive interface from where you will be able to set up a redirection with merely a click. There is absolutely no need to fill any code in the .htaccess file.

The Domain Manager offers a built–in Custom DNS Records section via which you will be able to configure all sorts of DNS settings for your domain name. With just one click, you can set A, AAAA, MX, NS, CNAME, SRV and TXT records and edit them anytime you want! Simply fill in the new value for the DNS record that you’d like to set and then click the action button!

From the Domain Manager tool, you can also register nameservers for your domain and revert a DNS entry to its former status with merely one single click of the mouse!

When an individual or a company registers a domain name, they’re required to supply complete and precise WHOIS info. As this info has to be kept accurate all the time, it may often need to be edited.

The modifications will be instantly reflected online. You’ll be able to change the WHOIS info for one or several domains at the same time.
