Domains by Heartland Web Hosting

Within the Control Panel there is a point & click domain name administration tool that has a myriad of controls for administering multiple domains simultaneously. You’ll be able to easily set up subdomain names, redirect websites, change the name servers or the WHOIS data pertaining to a domain name, specify custom DNS records and more.

Aside from the typical domain name controls, in the Domain Manager you’ll also find an option to hide your domain name registration info by using the Whois Privacy Protection option and also to protect your online shopping portal’s transactions with normal or wildcard Secure Sockets Layer certificates.

From the Custom DNS Records section of the Domain Manager, you can update all the DNS records pertaining to your domain with only one single click of the mouse! All main types of DNS resource records are supported, including A, AAAA, MX, NS, CNAME, SRV and TXT records. All you have to do is specify the new value for the DNS record that you want to set or edit, click on the action button and allow a little time for the new record to be propagated globally. An alternative option is to convert a DNS resource record to its former status.

What’s more, if you want to make your site’s nameservers look like your domain, you can accomplish that with merely a single mouse click via the Domain Manager.

The WHOIS info associated with your domain name becomes publicly disclosed to everybody right after the registration process itself. You can evade that by ordering an Whois Privacy Protection service for your domain. With it, your personal or business information, including your name, email address and physical address, will be substituted with fictional info. To enable Whois Privacy Protection for your domain, simply choose the domain name and click on the Whois Privacy Protection button to request the activation of this feature.

This specific service is available with most of the universal and country–specific domain extensions that we’re offering. Have a look at the TLD information page on our web site to see which TLD extensions are Whois Privacy Protection–eligible.

Working with our Domain Manager is very easy, no matter if you’ve got one or multiple domains to manage. Via its easy–to–navigate interface, you can select many domains at the same time and renew them (for one or several years), change their name servers or update the WHOIS information associated with them immediately.

If you also have a web hosting account with us, you will be able to manage both multiple domains and multiple websites simultaneously from one and the same location.

The domain forwarding tool that’s integrated into our web hosting Control Panel permits you to point a domain or a sub–domain in your account to another website of your choice. Just define the host you need to redirect as well as the destination path itself. Our tool will take care of the redirection procedure and your domain name will begin to point to the desired location immediately.

The tool has an easy–to–use interface, so you can redirect a chosen domain or subdomain with merely a couple of clicks instead of making complex modifications to the .htaccess file.

With the Wildcard feature included in the Domain Manager, you can make all the hosts that you have under a given domain load the home page of your website.

This functionality can be very useful if you want to set up a multisite application on your website, or when you want a given sub–domain to redirect to the main page of your web site.

You can activate a wildcard domain name with one single click of the mouse via the Control Panel–integrated Domain Manager interface. You simply need to hit the Add Host button on the right and you will notice the Wildcard option at the bottom of the dialog box.

By locking your domain name, you’ll be able to defend it from unauthorized transfers. By doing this, any person who tries to trigger a transfer of your domain to another registrar will be momentarily stopped.

If you have to transfer the domain to a different domain name registrar yourself, you can unlock it with a simple mouse click. The domain locking/unlocking feature is accessible in the Domain Manager section of your Control Panel. Simply choose a domain name and click the Registrar Lock icon to lock or unlock it.

A 24/7 technical support service is included in our domain management package. Heartland Web Hosting’s customer service technicians are ready to help you with any problem that you may have registering, transferring or managing your domain names. For instance, if you have to edit your domain name’s nameservers, but don’t know how to accomplish that, simply let us know and we will help you out.

You can get in touch with our tech support staff via e–mail or via the technical support ticket system. You can also use the phone or our live chat service during working hours. We offer a 60–minute technical support ticket response time guarantee.
