How to update contact information for a domain in the customer area

Domains have their own set of contact information that is independent of your user account information. This guide shows you how to update the contact information for a specific domain.

Overview

Each domain has a separate set of contact information for the registrant, administrative contact, and tech contact. It is important that this information is kept up to date, so that support can get in touch with you even if your account's contact information is outdated or unavailable.

When you have completed this guide, you will know how to update a domain's contact information via the customer area.
