Everything Included With Every Domain
No add-ons. No surprises. Just a domain that works.
Free WHOIS Privacy for Life
Your personal contact information is hidden from public WHOIS lookups at no extra charge — forever. Not just for the first year.
Full DNS Management
Edit A, CNAME, MX, TXT, and all other DNS records directly from your control panel. Changes propagate in minutes.
Easy Domain Transfers
Transfer your existing domain in — or out — at any time. Transfers to Vortex Media renew your registration for another full year.
Domain Forwarding & Redirects
Point your domain anywhere or set up 301/302 redirects directly from the control panel. No technical knowledge required.
Domain Email Forwarding
Forward emails from your domain address to any inbox — even before you set up full email hosting. Free on all domain registrations.
Transfer Lock Protection
All domains are automatically locked against unauthorized transfers. Unlock in one click when you need to move — protected when you don't.
Why Register Here Instead of the Big Registrars?
GoDaddy updated their Terms of Service in February 2026 to remove EU consumer protections, raise arbitration fees to $2,325, and add a jury-trial waiver. Namecheap charges for WHOIS privacy after the first year. We don't play those games.
- No bait-and-switch pricing — renewal rates are disclosed upfront. No first-year discounts that triple at renewal.
- Free WHOIS privacy for life — not just the first year, not a paid add-on.
- No forced upsells — your cart won't be pre-loaded with extras you didn't ask for.
- One provider for everything — domain, hosting, SSL, email, and WordPress dev all under one roof.
