Transfer fees for .com, .net, .info, .biz domains is £6.00 while for .co.uk., .me.uk and .org.uk domains is £12.00 only. Besides Eukhost also offers domain name ID Protection. Why need domain name ID protection? Did you know that when an individual or a company registers a new domain name, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) will require your private contact information (WhoIs Info) be included in a publicly accessible database such as your name, address, telephone number, and email address of the domain name registrant. The WHOIS system originally was created as a way for system administrators to contact website owners so that they could assign Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to websites. Domain ID protection conceals this personal information to protect all the private information that you display, secure and effective defense against spammers, domain hijackers, data miners and others. So that registrants do not have to worry about their personal information being leaked over the Internet.

Eukhost Domain Name ID Proctection, now only £5.00 per domain! With the Domain ID privacy protection service, a third party becomes the legal owner of the domain, although the domain protection service is simply acting as the landlord of the Internet property. Since the domain protection service is the legal owner of the domain, this company can put its company’s own information in as a forwarding service, as opposed to that of the registrant. All emails and contacts will be made to the domain protection service. For more details and inquiries, contact Eukhost by clicking Eukhost.com or get in touch with one of Eukhost sales representative on 24/7 Live Chat support.

After doing some research and reviews, I found out that Eukhost does offering domain privacy or protection feature. you can activate the domain privacy protection at six pound per year, or you can email eukhost billing department and asked them to change your contact information to protect the mode.

For my case, my eukhost shared hosting is using ns51.eukdns.com, instead of the common ns1.eukhost.com thing.

• Server IP: 92.48.117.50
• Eukhost Nameserver 1: ns51.eukdns.com
• Eukhost Nameserver 2: ns52.eukdns.com

Once you obtain these eukhost dns nameserver, you can point your existing domain name to a eUKhost, or transfer your domain to eukhost. your domain name can remain at existing registrar, but pointing to eukhost nameserver and host your website with eUKhost.
