An SSL certificate enciphers the connection between your clients and your e–store and tells everyone that it is a riskless place for shopping. You’d ordinarily obtain an SSL certificate from a 3rd–party provider. However, with Simmetry Communications, you can get one straight through your web hosting Control Panel.

Just visit the SSL Certificates menu and decide if you want a generic SSL certificate or a wildcard SSL certificate. After that request an activation and we will do the rest on your behalf in a jiffy.

With the web hosting Control Panel, domain parking is easy and fast. You just have to indicate the domain name you want to park and to pick one of our parking templates – For Sale or Under Construction. Our clever system will park your domain name momentarily with no wait time. And in case you want to to un–park it, it can be accomplished with one single click.

If you want to lend an individual touch to Simmetry Communications’s domain parking templates, you can also insert custom text.

With the Wildcard option included in the Domain Manager, you can make all the hosts that you have under a given domain open the home page of your site.

This functionality can be quite useful if you need to set up a multisite app on your site, or if you need a given sub–domain to point to the index page of your web site.

You will be able to add a wildcard domain with a mere click via the Control Panel–integrated Domain Manager interface. You just need to click on the Add Host button on the right and you’ll notice the Wildcard option at the bottom of the dialogue box.

From the Custom DNS section of the Domain Manager, you’ll be able to edit a variety of DNS resource records for your domain names, including A, AAAA, MX, NS, SRV, CNAME and TXT resource records. Adding a new resource record is amazingly easy. You simply need to select a domain and then specify the record that you want. Any change you have made will be reflected live within 24 hours. If you’d like to reset the original resource record value, simply push the Revert button.

The Custom DNS section also comprises a GeoIP location tool, which permits you to point visitors from a certain geographical location to a specific language version of your web site.

Through our Domain Manager, you’ll be able to easily manage a plethora of domain names from a single location. You’ll get access to a rich array of DNS controls and will be able to make modifications to a lot of domain names at the same time.

What’s more, if you happen to also have a cloud hosting account with Simmetry Communications, you will be able to manage both your domains and your websites from a single location.

The Domain Manager offers you the opportunity to address a given target audience based on its physical whereabouts. Using the GeoIP location tool, you will be able to easily send the visitors coming from a specific geographical region to a particular part of your web site that addresses their demands. For example, if you desire to have a French version of your web site, you can easily set up a subdomain fr.your–website.com and utilize the tool to point the individuals from France and from the French–speaking countries to this subdomain.

The GeoIP location tool boasts a user–friendly interface from where you’ll be able to set up a redirection with a simple click of the mouse. There’s absolutely no need to enter any code in the .htaccess file.

With Simmetry Communications, you can easily prevent your domain name from being transferred away without your knowledge by "locking" it at your current domain name registrar. This will not affect the way the domain name behaves in the slightest, but will momentarily stop all domain name transfer requests.

If you need to transfer your domain, you can easily unlock it. Locking and unlocking a domain is quite simple and involves just one single click.
