This includes your mailing address, phone number, and email address!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Domain Privacy Protection from InMotion Hosting, we will make our information available to the public instead of yours. This can help protect you from potential spammers, telemarketers, and even identity thieves. This would cost only an additional <strong>$15.99<\/strong> annually! Otherwise, we would have to use the billing information we currently have on file for your account. This is usually the name and address of the person who subscribed for the hosting account initially.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your name will remain as the registrant contact so that you retain complete ownership of the domain. To register a new domain you will first need to log into AMP. If you need more information about <a href=\"\/support\/amp\/how-to-log-into-amp\/\">logging into AMP<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Domain Privacy Protection is available with all hosting accounts, including <a href=\"\/shared-hosting\">shared hosting<\/a>, <a href=\"\/vps-hosting\">VPS hosting<\/a>, and our <a href=\"\/dedicated-servers\">dedicated servers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"other\">What about other domain extensions?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind you can still host any domain with InMotion by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/domain-names\/dns-nameserver-changes\/\">pointing to our nameservers<\/a>, and <a href=\"\/support\/domain-names\/add-another-domain-name-account\/\">adding the domain to your cPanel<\/a>. There are many other domain extensions that are available as well. There are extensions specific to every country as well as other more restrictive extensions such as .edu. Very soon, ICANN will be releasing around 700 other extensions for sale as well. If you need a domain that has an extension different from the ones we offer, your best bet is to visit Google and do a search for a registrar of that type. For example, if I want a <em>.ca<\/em> domain, I would do a search for \u201c<em>register .ca domain<\/em>\u201c.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Current InMotion Hosting customers can register new domains within their Account Management Panel (AMP).
