Manage a Domain Registered with Articulation

Manage renewals, DNS records, contact privacy, and transfers for a registered domain.

Domains registered with or transferred to Articulation have management controls for renewals, DNS, registration contacts, and transfers. A domain merely connected from another registrar is managed at that registrar instead.

Open domain management

Open Domain in your site dashboard and choose Manage for the registered domain. Check the domain name before making changes.

Domain Auto-Renewal controls

Control renewal

Under Renewal, use Auto-Renewal to choose whether Articulation renews the domain automatically. Turning it off shows the expiration date and warns that the domain may become unavailable. Review this setting before the domain expires.

Add or edit DNS records

  1. Find DNS Records and choose Add Record, or edit an existing record.
  2. Enter the name, record type, value, and TTL requested by the service you are configuring. MX records also have a priority.
  3. Save the record, then check the service's verification instructions.

Use the exact records supplied by that service. Editing or deleting records marked Website may take your website offline. If Articulation detects missing website A records, Fix DNS Records restores the records needed to point the site here.

Update registration contact and privacy

Under WHOIS Contact, click Edit, correct your registration details, and click Save Contact. Review WHOIS Privacy to control whether registration contact details are hidden from public WHOIS lookups where supported.

Transfer the domain away

  1. Find Transfer Domain Away.
  2. Click Unlock and Get Auth Code and confirm.
  3. Provide the displayed authorization code to your new registrar using its transfer process.

The domain stays unlocked until you cancel or complete the transfer. If you change your mind, choose Cancel Transfer to relock it. Keep the authorization code private.
