Protect your identity!

as low as $4.99/year

Our domain name Private Registration option works just like having an unlisted phone number. No one can access your name, email or street address, and other private information. You always retain full ownership and control of your domain. Good news for you, bad news for spammers … all for about a penny a day!

Did you know internet law requires all domain records show publicly accessible contact information – which anyone can view via what’s called a “Whois” search? No wonder scammers regularly harvest names and email addresses from domain records to send spam, and even sell your address to other spammers. Choose the Private Registration option with your YouStart domain name, and contact information is kept confidential.

And here is an illustration of how Private Registration works:

overview

Features

Shields your personal information from public records

Protects your email address from spammers.

Costs less than 2 cents a day.

YouStart’s dynamic email system constantly changes the visible email address for your domain. Should spammers try to send mail there, it will have likely already changed and no longer work. The Domain Privacy Protection Service (an affiliate of YouStart.com) keeps your real email address secure so you always receive important information regarding your domain.

Benefits

Safeguards you from identity theft

Thwarts domain name hijackers and data miners

Costs about a penny a day

Private Registration does not change the actual domain registration, only the displayed information. You always retain complete ownership and control of your domain name. If you ever need to prove ownership of your domain you can temporarily disable your Private Registration through the YouStart domain management panel. Simply return to that area anytime to turn your Private Registration service back on.

Personal Story

Did it myself

"Last year I paid a designer $1700 for a web site I was never really happy with. I always thought I could do a better job myself. Your web site creator was so simple to use it gave me the confidence to try it. It turned out great. Maybe I can be a web designer now?" – Max Brennan, Aurora, IL

Big features

"A friend who knew I was having problems with a big web company told me about YouStart. I was pleased to find you had all the “big” features with such personal service. As soon as I can I am transferring my other website too. Thank you.…" - Rose DiBenedetto, Baton Rouge, LA
