Updating Your Domain Name Contact Information

It's important to keep your domain names' registrant, administrator, technical, and billing contact information (also known as your Whois information) updated at all times. We use this information to notify the pertinent contact of changes or requests for your domain names.

You can enter different contact information for each of your domain names, or you can enter the same contact information for all of them.

You can update all four contact types at once (registrant, administrator, technical, and billing), or you can update them individually.

  1. Log in to your Account Manager.
  2. Next to Domains, click Launch.
  3. Select the domain name(s) you want to update.
  4. From the Contact menu, select Set Contacts. The Contact Information window displays.

    • Registrant — The person who registered the domain name.
