WHOIS (pronounced as the phrase "who is") is a query and response protocol that is widely used for querying databases that store the registered users or assignees of an Internet resource, such as a domain name, an IP address block or an autonomous system but is also used for a wider range of other information. There are many reasons to maintain an accurate WHOIS record. The most important reason for maintaining an accurate WHOIS record is that it reduces the chance of unauthorized modification or transfer to your domain name. It also ensures that we have contact data by which to communicate critical information to you.
