Are you familiar with this mostly used term, “Whois Privacy”? Most of the domain registrars offer this special type of service called, whoisprivacy. In short, this is just to protect your valuable information related to personal or business as a domain registrant from those who tries to Do a “whois” on any of your domain.

The registrar having this whois privacy service does not actually reveal the valuable information related to the registrant’s personal or business in public. Instead of this, it displays the information including the name and the contact data of the DomainsByProxy, which is among the well-known companies that offer all kinds of privacy services. But this was a very common practice until a few years back, to keep your information hidden. But this idea is no more considered a valid one, if you’re actually planning to earn revenues from your blogs and websites.

Also, if you are planning to set-up an online business, using the whois privacy is not a wise decision. In other words using such services will Reduce your authenticity.
