Domains Overview

Overview of domain management in hPanel, covering registration, DNS configuration, pointing, transfers, domain types, and status meanings at Hostinger.

Register, point, and manage domains and DNS from hPanel.

Domain management

The Domains section of hPanel is organized into Domain portfolio (all your domains), Get a new domain, Transfers, and Contact profiles (the WHOIS contact details used for registrations). From there you can:

• Register new domains — one at a time or in bulk

• Renew existing ones

• Configure DNS, with snapshots you can restore

• Point domains to hosting

• Transfer in or out, with a transfer lock to prevent unauthorized moves

• Manage WHOIS privacy protection
