Domain management
Your domain is your address. Make sure the deeds are in your name.
Your domain carries your website, your email and your reputation. We register it in your organisation's name, lock it against theft, keep your details private and renew it on time. Need a change? One phone call.
- Registered in your name
- Theft protection included
- WHOIS privacy included
- Changes by phone in Arabic or English
How businesses lose their domains
When a domain is lost, the website and email go with it, and getting it back can take months. It usually happens in one of four ordinary ways, and most of them can be prevented.
Registered to someone else
A domain set up by a former employee or an outside agency is often in their name, and only the registered owner can move it or decide what happens to it.
A missed renewal
Reminders go to an old inbox or the card on file expires, the domain lapses, and someone else registers it.
A taken-over account
Someone gets into the registrar account and moves the domain away, taking your website and email with it.
Details on show
Without privacy, public WHOIS records can show your name, phone number and email address to anyone, including spammers and scammers posing as your registrar.
Yours on paper, not just in practice
Your domains belong to you. We manage them on your behalf, never in our own name, and we put that in writing.
Registered to your organisation
Every domain is registered in your organisation's name, never in Ultaria's or an employee's. The registration record names you as the owner, even while privacy keeps your details out of public lookups.
Stated in our agreement
The agreement says your domains are yours and that we manage them for you.
Yours to take with you
Ask for a domain's transfer code whenever you like. We confirm the request is yours and hand the code over, with no exit fee.
Checked every year
Once a year we send you a summary of every domain: who it's registered to, when it renews and how it's protected.
Every change is one phone call away
No control panel to learn and no password to keep safe. Call us during working hours, write to us or open a ticket, in Arabic or English, and tell us what you need in your own words.

Eight locks on every domain
Theft protection
Every domain is locked against transfers, so it can't be moved to another registrar while the lock is on. We lift the lock only when you ask, after confirming the request.
WHOIS privacy
Your name, email address, phone number and postal address are hidden from public lookups, which cuts spam and the fake renewal notices sent to domain owners. It covers every extension whose registry allows it.
Verified requests only
Changes come only from the people you've named, and the most sensitive ones are confirmed by a call back, so a stolen email password on its own shouldn't be enough to move your domain.
No lapsed renewals
We renew every domain on time and remind you 30 days ahead, so a domain is unlikely to lapse because of an old inbox or an expired card.
Email that's hard to forge
We set up and check your SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, so others can't easily send email in your name.
Signed DNS
With premium DNS, we switch on DNSSEC, which signs your DNS answers, so it's much harder to quietly send your visitors to a fake copy of your site. Domains and DNS
Watching for problems
We check your domains for unexpected changes to nameservers and records, for approaching expiry dates and for listings on email blocklists, and we tell you as soon as something needs attention.
Protecting your name
We suggest the extensions and spellings worth registering, such as your country domain, so nobody else can register them to imitate you.
Included with every domain
Every domain we register or transfer in comes with:
- Registration in your organisation's name.
- Theft protection.
- WHOIS privacy, wherever the registry allows it.
- DNS for your website and email, with premium DNS available as an add-on.
- Changes by phone, email or ticket, in Arabic or English.
- Automatic renewal, with a reminder 30 days ahead.
- Email records set up and checked.
- A yearly review of all your domains.
- The transfer code, whenever you ask for it.
One yearly price, no management fee
Management, theft protection and WHOIS privacy are included in each domain's yearly price, so there's no separate management fee. Prices depend on the extension, and we quote every domain in USD before you commit.
Questions domain owners ask
Who owns the domains you manage?
You do. Each domain is registered in your organisation's name, and the registration record names you as the owner. We manage it on your behalf, and our agreement says so.
Can I move a domain away from Ultaria?
Yes, whenever you like. We confirm the request is yours, lift the theft protection and give you the transfer code. Industry rules block most transfers for a short period after a domain is registered or moved, whichever registrar holds it.
What can I ask for by phone?
Anything you'd otherwise do in a registrar's control panel, and more: new records, nameserver changes, renewals, transfers, contact details, email settings and redirects. If you're not sure what a change involves, describe the result you want and we'll work out the rest.
How do you know it's really me on the phone?
You choose the people who can make requests. For sensitive changes, such as nameservers, owner details or transfers, we call back the number we hold for you before acting, never a number given during the call.
What does theft protection do?
It locks your domain against transfers, so it can't be moved to another registrar without your approval. We lift it only when you ask to move the domain, after confirming the request.
What does WHOIS privacy hide?
Your name, email address, phone number and postal address, which public WHOIS lookups could otherwise show to anyone. Some registries, including several country domains, don't allow it, and we'll tell you before you register.
My domain is registered to a former employee or agency. Can you help?
Yes. We find out who holds it, help you request the change to your organisation's name, and take care of the paperwork. Once it's yours, we bring it under our management.
Do my domains have to be registered with you?
For the full service, yes, because theft protection, privacy and renewals are set at the registrar. Country domains that your organisation must hold itself, such as .sy and .sa, can still have their DNS managed by us.
Can our team still make changes ourselves?
Yes. You can have access to our DNS panel, limited to your own domains, or edit DNS in your hosting control panel if you host with us. Or simply call us.
How much does it cost?
Nothing extra. Management comes with each domain's yearly price, which depends on the extension. Our free domain check shows the yearly price for common extensions.
