WHOIS Privacy Protection

An SSL certificate encodes the connection between your customers and your e–store and informs everyone that your store is a riskless place to buy from. You’d normally obtain an SSL certificate from a third–party provider. However, at HQWebHoster, you can obtain one straight from your Control Panel.

Simply go to the SSL Certificates menu and choose if you want a traditional SSL certificate or a wildcard SSL certificate. Then request an activation and we’ll accomplish the rest for you instantly.

In our Domain Manager you will find a user–friendly tool, which will help you filter your site traffic based on the visitors’ location. With our GeoIP redirection tool, you’ll be able to easily configure location–based redirections and point people to various areas of your site. For example, you can point the US visitors to your index page, and the traffic from Spain to a sub–domain – es.your–website.com, for instance.

Thanks to this easy–to–use tool, you’ll no longer have to enter dozens of lines of code in your .htaccess file. Everything is taken care of by the tool itself.

When registering a domain name, you’ll be required to provide accurate and up–to–the–minute registration information, irrespective of whether you’re an individual or a company. That is why, you’ll need to update your WHOIS records whenever needed. Yet, not all top–level domain name extensions support this functionality by default, so first check for this option before attempting a WHOIS update.

From the Domain Manager in your Control Panel, you will be able to alter the registrant, technical and admin contact info for one or multiple domains at the same time. All the modifications that you have made will be updated live right away!

If you’re creating an Internet brand, you simply cannot lean on one domain name. In order to develop a strong identity and also to prevent any online identity theft, you must get several different domain names at the same time – my–brand.com, my–brand.net, etc. Inside the web hosting Control Panel you’ll find an elegant solution to this problem – our bulk domain name registration tool.

You can register numerous domains simultaneously and even submit different WHOIS info for each one of them.

With the Registrar Lock option turned on, you can rest confident that your domain is defended against online theft. Any individual who attempts an unsolicited domain name transfer will be momentarily stopped and the domain transfer request – refused.

In case, at some point, you choose to transfer your domain to another domain registrar, you’ll be able to unlock it with just a click of the mouse. You can find the domain locking/unlocking feature in the Domain Manager section of your Control Panel.

Through the Custom DNS section of the Domain Manager, you will be able to update various types of DNS resource records for your domain names, including A, AAAA, MX, NS, SRV, CNAME and TXT resource records. Setting a new resource record is really easy. You only have to select a domain name and fill in the record that you want. Any change you have made will be reflected live within just one day. In case you’d like to reset the old record value, simply click the Revert button.

The Custom DNS section also contains a GeoIP location tool, which enables you to direct people from a specific geographical area to a given language version of your website.

Our Domain Manager will grant you complete control over multiple domains. Just mark the domain names whose settings you want to change and after that choose the action that you want to carry out. You will be able to renew the chosen domain names, to update their WHOIS settings and even to update their nameservers at once.

The possibility to manage multiple domain names at the same time will help domain name registrants save time on everyday domain management tasks.

The domain name forwarding tool that’s integrated into our web hosting Control Panel permits you to redirect a domain or a sub–domain in your account to some other site of your choice. All you have to do is specify the host you intend to to redirect and the preferred destination path itself. Our system will handle the forwarding process and your domain name will begin to point to the new location immediately.

This tool features a user–friendly interface, so you can forward a preferred domain or subdomain with just a couple of clicks instead of making intricate .htaccess file modifications.
