Frequently asked by service
Do I own a domain after it is registered?
Registration records and the provider determine the registrant and account management rights. Use accurate registrant information and keep access to the account.
Does a TLS certificate make a website completely secure?
A certificate encrypts the connection, but it does not replace software updates, backups or access controls.
Do I need a separate mailbox for info, sales and support?
It depends on how an address is configured and licensed. Some addresses may be aliases or shared mailboxes under a provider plan. Confirm the required license before purchase.
Does SEO setup guarantee a top search result?
No. Setup can help organize a website and make it easier to understand, while rankings depend on many factors and external search engines.
