TABLE OF CONTENTS
With Domain Protection domain owners can benefit from the following:
1. Protection against domain theft
Unauthorised changes and domain transfers that can result in the loss of a domain name. Domain Protection includes Two-Factor Authentication on updates and a built-in Domain Transfer Lock. This means no changes or transfers can happen without the account holder’s approval.
2. Stronger privacy and less spam
When registering a domain, certain contact details are required. With WHOIS Privacy included by default, personal information such as your name, email address and phone number is hidden from public view.
The result? Fewer spam emails, fewer sales calls and reduced risk of scams or identity misuse.
3. Faster, more reliable performance worldwide
Domain Protection includes Anycast DNS Nameservers in 62 locations, which means domain visitors are automatically connected to the closest available network point.
For businesses, this leads to:
- Faster website response times
- Better performance for international visitors
- Improved reliability (1000% uptime guaranteed)
Even if one location experiences issues, traffic is automatically rerouted keeping your domain online and accessible.
4. Built-In Protection Against Online Attacks
Large-scale online attacks (DDoS and Botnet) can overwhelm websites and email services, causing downtime and lost business. Domain Protection helps absorb and distribute malicious traffic across multiple global points, thereby minimising the traffic load and reducing the risk of outages.
5. A Safety Net If You Forget to Renew
Mistakes happen. If a domain expires, recovery can be costly. With Domain Protection, customers receive up to 50% off Redemption Fees during the recovery period – minimising the cost and stress of having to reclaim your brand.
Domains.co.za CEO, Wayne Diamond, shared the vision behind the launch: “A domain name is the heart of any company’s brand, and cybercriminals are always looking for ways to exploit that. While we include strong security measures as standard in all our solutions, it’s clear that customers are looking for an extra layer of defence. Domain Protection is our answer to this.”
For just R69.00 per year*, Domain Protection offers domain name customers speed, privacy all in one complete package.
It can be added when registering a new domain or enabled at any time on an existing domain through the Domains.co.za customer dashboard.
