Once you have registered your domain name it’s time to use it.

Maybe you want to funnel visitors to a landing page built especially for sales, or forward them to your personal Twitter page - it’s completely up to you how you use it.

You can also create personalized email addresses based on your domain name. This helps to build trust in your brand and promote your company.

WhoisGuard is a privacy protection service from Namecheap.

When you register a domain, ICANN requires the registrar to forward the contact information you provide them with, for inclusion in the Internet's Whois Database.

WhoisGuard replaces this personal information with generic WhoisGuard contact information.

This protects your private information from being mined and used for other purposes, such as identity theft or unsolicited marketing.

Yes, you can keep registration data private with WhoisGuard. When you register a domain, certain personal information is taken from you that you may not wish to be publicly searchable.

Domain privacy helps to minimize spam and protect against domain hijacking. WhoisGuard acts as a ‘shield’ for searchable information and places Namecheap as the point of contact, displaying our information instead of your own.

WhoisGuard Privacy Protection is completely free for all eligible TLDs and includes personal details and spam protection. You can also benefit from email forwarding, synchronized expiration and domain transfers.

There is no need to do anything to activate WhoisGuard as long as your domain is eligible. It will be added to the Shopping cart automatically and enabled by default.

At Namecheap, you can register brand new domain names using hundreds of popular TLDs.
