With Domain Privacy, Infomaniak allows you to preserve the confidentiality of your personal information (name, email address, postal address, and phone number) and effectively protect yourself against SPAM.
Preamble
- Registrars accredited by ICANN are required to publish the owner's contact information of a domain in the public WHOIS directory, which lists all registered domains and primarily serves to:
- verify the availability of domain names
- verify trademark infringements
- contact the owner of a domain in case of a legal issue
- For customers concerned about the confidentiality of their personal data and who do not wish to publicly display their email address, phone number, and postal address in the WHOIS directory, Domain Privacy allows you to mask these real coordinates.
- Thanks to this protection, WHOIS searches for your domain do not return your personal information, but the information of the partner Domain Privacy Trustee SA:
- You are protected against SPAM: marketing companies and individuals cannot use your personal data.
- You remain the full owner of your domain.
- It remains possible to contact you via a secure form that protects your identity.
- Discover the domain name extensions supported by Domain Privacy
Activate Domain Privacy on an existing domain
Domain Privacy is activated in a few seconds:
- Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
- Click directly on the name assigned to the product concerned.
- Activate Domain Privacy from the dashboard:

Infomaniak also offers the possibility to guarantee the renewal of your domains with Renewal Warranty: this guarantee is intended to ensure that you do not lose domains that are important for the smooth running of your activities.

This guide concerns domain names called Premium.
Preamble
- These domain names are designated by the registries (registry) as domains with strong commercial potential for referencing or branding.
- The prices of these domains are set by their registry or by their current owner and do not particularly depend on the extensions (
.com,.net, etc.). - A
.artdomain can be found for less than 10 EUR just as it can be bought for more than 300 EUR. - Anyone can buy a premium domain.
Recognizing this type of domain
On the Infomaniak shop, premium domains are topped with a crown to differentiate them. Here is an example:
The 3 characteristics of a premium domain
- High commercial value
- Impactful and easy to remember
- High traffic potential
Why register a premium domain name?
- Renewal at standard price: the price of a premium domain is high the first year, but the cost of its renewal is generally the same as that of a standard domain
- Facilitated transfer: the price of a premium domain generally includes the transfer of the domain and the change of owner

This guide presents the Domain Status tool, which allows you to verify that the relationships between…
- DOMAIN NAME with Infomaniak
and
- WEB HOSTING with Infomaniak
… are correct, so that Web traffic is directed to the right place.
Preamble
- To verify, the tool checks the
A,CNAMErecords, etc. - You will thus be able to detect and correct certain Web issues, especially if they are related to DNS (technical information that, in short, determines where such and such Web traffic should be directed) by acting at the level of your domain.
- Automatic correction is only possible when the domain name is present in the same Organization as the product to which it must be attached.
- If this is not the case, then the correction must be done manually.

DNS Fast Anycast replicates the DNS of your domain around the world to reduce latency and increase the availability of your websites.
Preamble
- Thanks to DNS Fast Anycast, the DNS of your domain are replicated within several Points of Presence (POP) around the world (list below).
- No matter where your visitors are, they are redirected to the nearest DNS server to them, which on average speeds up by 34% (DNS resolution) the access speed to your site.
- Moreover, if one of your DNS servers were to become unavailable, the nearest server naturally takes over and your visitors can continue to access your site.
- The replication of your domain's DNS is automatic and no modification of your code is required.
Manage DNS Fast Anycast
Prerequisites
- DNS Fast Anycast is compatible with all websites, regardless of your host.
- All you need is a domain name managed at Infomaniak.
- Transfer the management of your domain to Infomaniak if necessary
- Refer to this other guide to manage external domains.
To access the DNS Fast Anycast option:
- Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
- Click directly on the name assigned to the product concerned.
- Enable or disable the DNS Fast Anycast toggle switch on the dashboard:

This guide details the specifics of the .be domain extension (for Belgium), including the administrative steps to transfer the management of a .be domain to Infomaniak.
Preamble
- As with other extensions, but particularly for
.be, it is very important to keep the WHOIS information of your domain name up to date to avoid any suspension by DNS.be! - The terms "
EPP", "AuthCode", "AuthInfo", "transfer code" and "authorization code" all refer to alphanumeric sequences specific to the domain, whose main purpose is to verify the owner's authorization before a transfer between Registrars.
Transfer a .be domain to Infomaniak
.be domains are subject to a specific procedure for their authorization code (EPP code). If your previous registrar provided you with an authorization code, it is likely that this one is not valid. Indeed, to obtain the authorization code for a .be, you must either:
- click on "Get the authorization code" from the page that asks for the code,
- or go to dnsbelgium.be and request the authorization code (EPP code).
You should absolutely not try to transfer the domain multiple times in a row with the wrong code otherwise you will block the domain as well as the transfer (Command failed; please contact support - domain locked) for several dozen hours without Infomaniak being able to do anything about it. You will have to wait before trying again with another code that must absolutely be the correct one.
Remove a .be from quarantine
Outside of a transfer period, and following outdated WHOIS information or suspicious use of your domain, it is possible that dnsbelgium.be the Belgian registry temporarily suspends this .be domain.
A standard WHOIS query will mention "NOT AVAILABLE" but you will get the actual status directly on their site, and in particular a availability date before which you must absolutely follow one of the three possible outcomes:
- resolve the issue with DNSBelgium and transfer the domain to Infomaniak,
- resolve the issue with DNSBelgium and transfer the domain to another registrar (or to Infomaniak if the problem occurred with another registrar),
- ignore the problem and wait for this availability date to try to re-register the domain (not recommended).
In the first two outcomes, you will need to obtain from DNSBelgium the end of quarantine as well as the authorization code. The operation of (re)registering the domain with Infomaniak is paid (around a hundred €/CHF) so it is important to keep the information up to date as the T&Cs specify.
Verification required
If you encounter this type of errors in the WHOIS, on your site, or via an e-mail report:
Verification required for domain.beThis site can’t be reached Check if there is a typo in domain.be. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAINWe only activate this domain name once the contact details of the domain name holder have been validated
… check and update your domain name information so that it works again.

This guide details the procedure to modify the WHOIS details of the domain name holder, which you can apply to an entire batch of domains in your Organization with Infomaniak.
Change details in bulk
To modify the WHOIS details of multiple domain names at once:
- Click here to access the management of your domain on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
- Select the domains whose owner needs to be modified using the checkboxes.
- Click on Change owner at the bottom of the table:

- Choose an existing contact card…
- … or click on the Add button to create an entirely new contact card.
- Check your selection as well as any potential modification fees in the box:

- Click on Confirm.

This guide explains how to set up a dynamic DNS record (Dynamic DNS, DDNS) for a domain name whose DNS zone is managed at Infomaniak. This free alternative to Dyn and DynHost is very useful if you want to access devices connected to the Internet from the outside whose IP address is dynamic (e.g., a NAS, a surveillance camera, an Internet router/box/home automation, etc.).
Prerequisites
- The DNS zone of the domain name must be managed at Infomaniak.
- If necessary, transfer your domains to Infomaniak.
- Your device or application must support dynamic DNS records.
Specific guides
The following guides allow you to link a domain name with:
- … a Synology NAS
- … a Qnap NAS
- … Zyxel / Sunrise Internet Box / TP-Link solutions
- … a UniFI device
- … Swisscom Internet Box
- … Fritzbox
- … Jeedom
- … Linux via ddclient
- … potentially anything thanks to the API…
The various services offered by Infomaniak are all compatible with the corresponding standard protocols (CalDAV/CardDAV for contacts & calendars for example), therefore if you encounter a problem with third-party software, contact its publisher or a Partner and consult the support policy as well as article 11.9 of the Infomaniak Terms of Service.
Guides for any other use
To create a dynamic DNS on your domain:
- Click here to access the management of your domain on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
- Click directly on the name assigned to the domain concerned.
- Click on Dynamic DNS in the left sidebar menu.
- Click on the blue button Add a Dynamic DNS.
- Enter the necessary information:

- Choose the desired subdomain or leave the Dynamic DNS Name field empty to use the main domain.
- Provide an IP address; this will then be dynamically updated by your device/app.
- Set up a username / password pair (uppercase, lowercase + numbers, no special characters); the latter will need to be entered in the configuration of your device/app.

This guide explains how to add or modify one or more TXT record entries in the DNS zone (of a domain name) managed on the Manager Infomaniak.
Preamble
- The
TXTrecord type allows you to insert readable text into the DNS zone of a domain name. - This is the method generally used to help prevent spam and to verify domain ownership (Google may ask you to do this before using some of their services: refer to this other guide for an example of adding a
TXTrecord to authenticate a domain).
Modify the DNS zone
To manage this type of record in a DNS zone:
- Click here to access your domain management on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
- Click directly on the name assigned to the domain in question.
- Click on DNS zone in the left-hand menu.
- Click the button to add a record:

- Click on the radio button TXT to add a record.

This guide explains how to add an ANAME record in the DNS zone (of a domain name) managed on the Manager Infomaniak.
Preamble
- The
ANAMErecord type allows you to point the root of a domain to another address, similar to a CNAME record but without having to specify a source xyz preceding the domain (xyz.domain.com for example). - It is therefore not a real DNS record as such and it is not listed in the list of records that can be selected when editing the DNS zone.
- However, since it is a kind of alias, see below the method to follow to set up an
ANAME.
Create an ANAME
Creating an ANAME is equivalent to creating a CNAME directly at the root of the domain, and this is not possible.
If you are sure of what you are doing, you can follow this method to create the equivalent of an ANAME:
- Create a web redirection from the Manager of the domain root (root) to the www.
- Add a CNAME entry working with www to the target of your choice.

This guide describes the meaning of TTL, an abbreviation for «Time To Live» as well as the principle of DNS propagation delays, important concepts in the operation of services related to domain names.
Preamble
- The TTL determines how long DNS information is cached before being updated.
- This directly influences the speed of DNS changes propagation across servers worldwide.
- Although reducing the TTL can speed up propagation, the behavior of ISPs and their caches can introduce additional delays.
The TTL (Time to Live)
The TTL (Time to Live) is a key parameter in managing DNS records. It represents the duration, expressed in seconds, during which DNS information can be stored in cache before being updated. When a DNS server or an Internet Service Provider (ISP) queries a DNS zone, it temporarily stores the responses obtained in order to reduce the load on the servers and speed up navigation for users.
For example, if the TTL is set to 24 hours (86400 seconds), the DNS information related to a domain will be cached and will not be updated for the entire duration, even if you have modified parameters such as the domain's IP address. This means that DNS changes will only take effect once this period has elapsed.
It is possible to speed up the application of changes by reducing the TTL before making updates. For example, lowering the TTL to one hour (3600 seconds) allows DNS servers to check new information more quickly after a modification.
DNS propagation
The TTL is directly related to the process of DNS propagation. DNS propagation refers to the time required for changes made to a DNS zone to be distributed across all DNS servers in the world. This delay depends not only on the configured TTL, but also on how ISPs and other DNS servers manage their caches.
When you modify DNS records, DNS servers and ISPs must wait for the TTL delay to expire before retrieving the new information. Thus, the shorter the TTL, the faster the changes propagate through the network. However, some ISPs sometimes ignore the TTL duration and retain the information in cache for a longer period (for example 24 hours or more), which can slow down the propagation of DNS changes, even if you have configured a reduced TTL.
