names and hosting on one account

Domain Registration: every name pointed at its own dedicated IP

Register, transfer and renew your domains in the same place you buy the addresses they resolve to. One dashboard, one invoice, private nameservers on every name, and no waiting on a registrar that has never heard of a Class C block.

Type a name, or pick an extension to swap the one you typed. Live registration and renewal rates are shown in the order form.

How the domain search works

Availability is a live registry answer, not something a marketing page can cache and repeat. So this page hands your search straight to the order form, which asks the registry in real time and comes back with the registration price, the renewal price and whatever the registry allows on that extension.

Search → register → resolve three steps, one account
01 · SEARCHType the name in the box above. We normalise it, keep the extension you picked, and pass it through.
02 · REGISTERThe order form checks the registry live, shows the real registration and renewal rates, and takes the payment.
03 · RESOLVEAdd the domain in cPanel, assign one of your dedicated IPs, point it at your own private nameservers.

Already know what you want? Skip straight to the order form and search there: the same registry check, one click earlier.

Why register the name where the IP lives

Splitting names and hosting across two providers is the default because it is how most people started, not because it works better. On a single site the cost is a little copying between dashboards. On a network of thirty it is a second login, a second renewal calendar, a second support queue, and a DNS layer nobody owns end to end.

DNS onto your own IPs, immediately

The address the name should resolve to is already in your account. Register it here and pointing the domain at one of your dedicated IPs is a field in the IP Manager, not an export from one control panel and an import into another. What is left to wait for is resolver caching, which nobody controls.

Private nameservers on every domain

Own ns1 and ns2 per domain, included rather than sold as an upgrade. This is the quiet failure mode of diverse-IP networks: distinct addresses on every site, then one shared nameserver pair tying all of them back together in a single public record. Separate IPs deserve separate nameservers.

WHOIS privacy where the registry allows it

Your name, address, phone and email are replaced in the public record by the privacy service. Most generic extensions permit it; some country-code registries publish certain fields whatever you do, and we will tell you which is which at checkout rather than after you have paid.

One dashboard, one renewal calendar

Domains, hosting, IP allocations, SSL and invoices in the same account. Every name shows its own expiry date, auto-renew is a switch, and reminders arrive before the date rather than after it. The most common way a site disappears is not a ranking drop: it is an unpaid renewal at a registrar nobody logged into for a year.

Free SSL on the name, automatically

Every domain on a hosting account here gets a certificate issued for it without a purchase, a CSR or a copy-paste. A registered name that answers on HTTPS from the first day never has to be migrated off a mixed-content warning later.

Support that knows the whole stack

One ticket queue for the name, the DNS, the IP and the server, staffed 24/7/365. When a site stops resolving there is no round trip between a registrar blaming the host and a host blaming the registrar: the same team can see the registration record and the zone at once.

Bulk registration for multi-site networks

Registering forty names one form at a time is how a weekend disappears. The order form takes a list, checks the whole list against the registry in one pass, and puts everything that is available into a single cart on a single invoice.

Built for people running more than one site

If you are building out a network, the domain step is rarely one name: it is a batch, and the batch has to land on hosting that keeps those sites apart. That is the whole reason this page exists next to a Class C product rather than on a registrar's site: the names and the addresses are bought in the same session, and each name gets its own dedicated IP and its own private nameservers as it is set up.

  • One list in, one availability pass, one cart, one invoice.
  • Every registered name lands in the same account as your IP pool.
  • Private ns1/ns2 per domain · separation that survives a DNS lookup.
  • Hand the same list to the Multi-WP installer once the names resolve.
  • Renewals for the whole batch on one calendar, one auto-renew switch.

This box is a scratchpad, not a live checker: it counts what you have typed so you know the size of the batch before you start. Nothing is sent anywhere until you open the order form, where the whole list is checked against the registry and priced.

transfer in

Bring the names you already own

A transfer changes who bills you for a domain: not where it points. Keep the same nameservers through the move and DNS carries on answering exactly as it did before, with no downtime and nothing to rebuild. In most cases the transfer also adds a year to the registration term rather than resetting it, so the time you have already paid for comes with you.

What it needs from the losing registrar is unremarkable and takes about five minutes: unlock the domain, copy the authorisation code, and make sure the confirmation email can actually reach you. After that the order form does the rest.

Before you start · four things
  1. Unlock the domain. Registrar lock blocks outbound transfers by design; switch it off in the current registrar's panel.
  2. Copy the auth code. Also called the EPP code. It is the proof of ownership the gaining registrar needs.
  3. Turn WHOIS privacy off briefly. The confirmation email goes to the registration address, so it has to be one you can read.
  4. Check the age. Names registered or transferred within the last 60 days are locked by registry policy, not by us.

Can I transfer a domain I already own to SEOHost?
Yes. Transferring in needs three things from your current registrar: the domain unlocked, the authorisation code (also called the EPP or auth code) copied out, and WHOIS privacy switched off long enough for the confirmation email to reach you. Start the transfer in the order form, paste the code, approve the confirmation email, and the name moves across. A transfer normally adds a year to the registration term rather than resetting it, so you do not lose the time you already paid for. Nothing about your site goes down while it happens: a transfer changes who bills you for the name, not where it points. As long as you keep the same nameservers through the move, DNS carries on answering exactly as before.
How fast can a new domain point at my dedicated IP?
As soon as you have both halves in the same account, minutes. Registering the name here means it lands in the same dashboard as your hosting, so there is no copying records between two providers and no waiting on a support queue at a registrar that does not know what a Class C block is. You add the domain in cPanel, assign it one of your dedicated IPs in the IP Manager, and point the name at your private nameservers. What you then wait on is DNS propagation, which is a property of the internet rather than of us: resolvers cache the old answer until its TTL expires. Lower the TTL a day before you plan to move a live site and the change lands much faster.
Do I get private nameservers for the domains I register?
Yes, and this is the part that matters most if you are running more than a handful of sites. Every hosting account here includes private ns1 and ns2 per domain, at no extra cost. Registering fifty names, spreading them across fifty distinct Class C blocks, and then pointing all fifty at one shared nameserver pair rebuilds the exact shared footprint you paid to remove: the nameserver record is public and anyone can look it up. Private nameservers per domain close that gap, so the separation you bought at the IP level is not undone one DNS lookup later.
Is WHOIS privacy available, and what does it actually hide?
WHOIS privacy replaces your name, postal address, phone number and email in the public registration record with the privacy service details, so a public lookup no longer returns your personal contact information. It is available on the TLDs whose registry permits it: most generic extensions do, while some country-code registries and a few gTLDs publish certain fields regardless. What it does not do is hide ownership from a registry, a registrar or a court order, and it does not make two domains you own look unrelated to anything but a casual lookup. Treat it as basic contact hygiene, not as anonymity.
How does renewal work, and will a domain quietly expire on me?
Renewal invoices are raised ahead of the expiry date and you can leave auto-renew on so the name renews itself from the payment method on file. Every domain in the account shows its own expiry date in the dashboard, and reminders go to the account email before the date rather than after it. If a renewal is missed the name enters the registry grace period, where it can usually still be renewed at the normal price, followed by a redemption period that carries a much higher registry fee, so the cheap fix is always to renew before the date, not after. For a network of sites this is the single most common way people lose a domain they cared about, which is why keeping registration and hosting on one invoice is worth more than it sounds.

Give each of those names an address of its own

A domain is half the job. The other half is what it resolves to, and whether two of your sites resolve to the same neighbourhood.
