Domain Name Privacy Service
Domains by proxy service
Although private registration does conceal your (Or your customer's) Whois information from preying eyes, it does NOT conceal your registration information from law enforcement, the company (In the contract you sign with them)
explicitly state that they will disclose your information if the law requires or if they think is necessary.
You can offer $1.95 privacy for first year, and the buy 5 domains get privacy free offer |
So, How can this help you promote your Domain Reseller website ?
To begin with, i would advise you to start a page about this option, How it works, A users manual maybe that tells the user how to login at the Domains By Proxy website, where to find the username and password, etc..
You can also write some stuff about what privacy is and is not, etc...
Now, the real catch is here, If you make such a page for people who searched google for private registration and so on, you will probably end up with visitors interested in buying the privacy option, either for there existing domain name, or for a new domain name, If the user has a domain and wants privacy added to it (Concealing the domain's whois data that is already archived on many websites and archives), you may want to convince that user of transferring the domain name to your reseller store front so that they can make use of the offers you have (See offers at easywebdns), If they user wants to buy a domain with privacy, you can make that obvious too.
So, you may want an explanation of this service so you can publicize it through google or otherwise
The service is simply a privacy feature that can be applied to your domain.
Once you register a domain with a privacy feature, you are simply registering the domain name with the data of the Domains by proxy details, so that the contact on file and that will appear as someone does a whois will be the company's data.
A special email address is then assigned to you and forwarded to you, the one that will appear in the whois.
So, yourdomain_com@domainsbyproxy.com will be forwarded to your email address.
This will protect your phone number, your personal details like address and otherwise, but rest assured Domains by proxy has no obligation to conceal your information in cases like
*When your website is responsible for spam, viruses or harmful computer programs;
*Violate the law or infringe a third partyâ's trademark or copyright;
*Engage in morally objectionable activities, including but not limited to those which are child pornographic, defamatory, abusive, harassing, obscene, racist, or otherwise objectionable.
once that happens, you are out of luck, Domains By Proxy will put your name back on the website.
You should also be aware that the domain from the ICANN's view is owned by domains by proxy, Then an agreement between you and them guarantees your rights to that domain name.
Also part of the agreement is, You will provide your data accurately and in full to Domains By Proxy.
If your information is not accurate, they will ask you to update it, if you don't update it within 3 days, they will cancel your account.
If you take a good look at the agreement, especially section 4, you will notice that they will reveal your name and whois info in there " sole discretion", If law requires, or if they think it keeps them safe.
You may ask, How often do they reveal the information of the owner
As soon as they get a DMCA complaint. |
