Why MochaHost Identity Protection?

Did you know that current domain regulations require that your private contact information be included in a publicly accessible database known as "WhoIs database"? This means that your private information is displayed and made available to anyone that wants to see it (and used by spammers, hackers, name hijackers, identity thieves), 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Without MochaHost ID Protection (Private Registration), spammers can easily obtain your e-mail address from harvesting, and then use it for spamming purposes, and/or redistribution to marketing firms. Your e-mail address can stay on file with various spammers and marketing firms for years.

What is MochaHost Identity Protection?

MochaHost ID Protection works in the same way as having your phone number "unlisted": it prevents people from gaining access to your address, phone number, and other private information.

MochaHost ID Protection insures that your private contact information is not exposed. It is held in confidentiality and protected by the Domain Privacy Protection Service. Their contact information is displayed to provide you with the highest level of protection against spammers and identity theft.

Which TLDs allow ID Protection?

ID Protection can be purchased for the following TLDs: com, net, org, biz, info, name, tv, cc, me

We received almost a perfect score (4.5 out of 5) from cnet, and have been included in their Best Hosts of 2021 listing. Below is a quote from the official editorial review on cnet:

"The company has a wide range of offerings, but by far, the stand-out feature MochaHost provides is a 180-day money-back guarantee. That's the best we've seen so far, and it removed just about all of the risk from any hosting experience.

Overall, we were impressed with how customer-centric the company's offerings are. For example, unlike some of the hosting providers we've profiled (and deducted points from), MochaHost's published prices don't balloon once you've settled in with their service. They have a lifetime price-lock guarantee

They got other customer-centric bonuses for 24/7 support, including 24/7 toll-free callback phone support, free domain name and SSL certificates for as long as you remain a MochaHost customer, a website builder with 500 free templates (and a service that will custom-design your site if you need), a site migration service. In addition, all plans are e-commerce ready and come with free shopping cart software."
