What is domain name?
A domain name is a simple way to identify an IP address instead of using numbers. Every computer connected to the Internet has its own IP address. For example, Pladinum’s IP address is 212.95.49.134.
Why do I need domain?
To make your website visible online, it must be connected to the Internet, meaning your files need to be on a server with an IP address. We use domain names to locate the right server.
What can I do with a domain?
With a domain name, you can get hosting to create a professional email, publish your website, or link your social media profiles to your brand.

Increase trust with SSL
Secure your website and gain visitors trust with SSL encryption
Importance of SSL
An SSL certificate guarantees optimal security by encrypting all information transmitted to and from your website, protecting it from any third-party attempting. It holds great significance as web browsers like FireFox indicate pages without https and green padlock as insecure, which can compromise the credibility of your website. Furthermore, SSL protected pages have better search engine rankings and leave a positive impact on visitors, enhancing their trust in your website.
Wildcard SSL
Pladinum offers a freee Wildcard SSL certificate for each contract, which safeguards not only your domain but also its subdomains like https://www.login.mybusiness.com. Unlike a standard SSL certificate that secures only one domain, a Wildcard SSL certificate provides additional security to all the related subdomains, ensuring comprehensive protection.

Can I transfer my domain name immediately after registration?
Yes, it is possible to transfer your domain name immediately after registration. To do this, contact your new hosting provider and ask for assistance in transferring your domain name. Additionally, you should be aware that some domain name extensions require a 60-day waiting period after registration before you can transfer the domain name. To be sure, check the terms and conditions of your domain name before taking action.
My domain name is in quarantine. What does this mean?
If your domain name is in quarantine, it means that it is ‘frozen’. Before a domain name is fully released for registration, it usually enters a quarantine period. This gives the last owner of the domain name the option to undo this deletion. If you would like to have your domain name removed from quarantine, please contact us via the contact form below.
They can give you more information about the correct procedure and the costs. Only the owner of the domain name is authorized to have the domain removed from quarantine. For this, in addition to the request to remove the domain name from quarantine, we also need a scan/copy of the owner’s proof of ownership of the domain name like payment transaction.
Can I transfer my domain name if it has a transfer lock?
It is not possible to transfer a domain name if it has a so-called transfer lock. Such a status prevents a domain name from being transferred. You can remove the lock yourself.
Can I remove the transfer lock from my domain name?
Yes, this is possible via the control panel at https://cp.pladinum.com. When you are logged in, click on the relevant domain name under ‘Domains’. Behind the domain name, click on locked key icon. You can now indicate that the domain name will be transferred. As soon as you save this, our system knows that you wish to transfer your domain name and will therefore automatically remove the transfer lock.
Can I transfer my domain name internally to another customer?
Yes, this is possible by pushing the domain to another customer.
Can I register or transfer several domain names at the same time?
You can order multiple domain names at the same time via the control panel at https://cp.pladinum.com. Once you are logged in, click on Domains then Bulk registration. You can now check multiple domain names for availability with the ‘Check several domain names at the same time’ option.
Can i forward my website visitors to another address?
Yes, this is possible. Your visitors can be forwarded at address level using a so-called WWW pointer. You can set up this WWW pointer via the control panel at https://cp.pladinum.com. Once you are logged in, click on the relevant domain name under the ‘Domains’ option. Then click Manage WWW pointer. Here you can specify a website address (URL) to which visitors to your domain name should be forwarded. If your domain name does not yet have a WWW pointer, the domain’s DNS records will be adjusted when setting the pointer. As a result, it may take several hours (up to 24 hours) before the pointer is fully functional. The WWW pointer will not function if you do not use our name servers. Our WWW pointers support URL masking.
I have moved my hosting elsewhere. Can I point my domain name to this?
It is possible to point your domain name to another hosting provider. For this, the name servers or the DNS records of the domain name must be adjusted. You can request which data you should use from the provider where your website is hosted/housed.
