It’s better to be safe than sorry. None of us finds it pleasant to apologize to customers for data leaks or safety breaches - not to mention the financial, and other consequences. This short list of the top 6 security products will cover most of your concerns regarding the safety of your domain and email.
Getting started with EasyDMARC
Have you heard a lot about EasyDMARC lately? But are you not so sure how to actually take advantage of it? This useful article is packed with information on how to get started with EasyDMARC, including free tools and tutorial videos that will help you implement this product straight into your business.
.BOO and .RSVP announced
Google Registry announced their 2 new extensions: .BOO and .RSVP. Both TLDs will have a Sunrise phase from October 4, 2022 to November 7, 2022, and General Availability from November 15, 2022.
Requirements will be the same as other Google Registry TLDs (SSL certificate required), with a very similar price: $8 for General Availability, and $7.8 for Sunrise!
Remember that Sunrise registrations are for trademarks registered in the Trademark Clearing House. We are a TMCH agent, so you can have your trademark registered with us using your Reseller Control Panel!
We will support all phases in our Reseller Control Panel and API, so don’t miss this opportunity and start selling these TLDs with us.
Domain News
Free DNS zone changes
From 4th of October 2022, it will no longer be possible to park a domain name registered outside of Openprovider on our free DNS Servers. The servers will be reserved only for domains coming from Openprovider. We have to make this decision in order to assure the safety of our customers and to be able to provide uninterrupted access to our services. If you do have an external domain name parked on the Free DNS Server, we suggest transferring it to Openprovider, or redirecting it to another DNS server before the 4th of October.
