Registering A Domain

  
   When registering a domain name, the law requires that the personal information
   of the owner be made public in the "WHOIS" database. Your identity becomes
   instantly available to the public and vulnerable to spammers, etc.

   Personal information is identified as:

  • Full Name
  • Company Name (if applicable)
  • Physical Address
  • Telephone and Fax Numbers
  • Email Address


   How can I block my personal information from becoming public?:

   NetSelect offers Domain Privacy. For details, check Domain Privacy Services.


   Should I use a Company Name on my NetSelect account?:

   The personal information used on your NetSelect account is used as the owner
   information when registering a domain name. If you use a company name on
   your NetSelect account, that company name will also appear on the WHOIS
   database as the owner of that domain name.

   Keep in mind that a company name used on the domain supersedes an individual's
   name listed as the owner. For example, John Smith of ABC Products. The company,
   ABC Products will be considered the owner of the domain name, not John Smith.


   Does it matter if I use a company name?:

   No: If you are a registered business and can provide business ID, such as a Tax ID,
   a copy of a Business License, or a copy of a Trade Name (DBA) Certificate then it
   is acceptable to use a company name on your NetSelect account and/or domain.

   Yes
:  If you are not a registered business and/or you would be unable to provide
   acceptable Business ID then it is not advisable to use a company name.


   Why would I need to provide a copy of my Business ID?:

   When a company name is listed on your NetSelect account and/or domain name,
   it is that company that is the legal owner of the account and/or domain name. Valid
   Business ID will be required by NetSelect's Domain Services department whenever
   you need us to assist you in gaining access to your account, i.e., email address
   changed or unable to remember password.

   Valid Business ID provided by the requestor establishes, by law, that the person
   making the request is authorized by the company to do so.


   I am able to access my NetSelect account. Can I remove the company name
   from my NetSelect Account?:
