	<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;"><strong>HTTPS &amp; SSL Configuration Guide</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">To ensure the security of your website and protect your visitors, all domains under .boo, .day, .dev, .page, and .rsvp must use HTTPS. This guide will help you configure SSL/TLS correctly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><strong>1. What is HTTPS?</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">HTTPS (Hypertext Transfer Protocol Secure) encrypts data between your website and its visitors. It prevents eavesdropping and ensures data integrity.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><strong>2. Obtaining an SSL Certificate</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">NICENIC provides trusted SSL certificates. You can learn more and purchase/configure a certificate here:&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">https://nicenic.net/ssl-certificates/</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><strong>3. Installing the SSL Certificate</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Follow your web server’s instructions to install the certificate. Common servers include:</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Apache: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/ssl/ssl_howto.html</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Nginx: https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">IIS (Windows): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/manage/configuring-security/how-to-set-up-ssl-on-iis</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><strong>4. Enforce HTTPS</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Once your certificate is installed:</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Redirect all HTTP traffic to HTTPS.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Update internal links and resources to use HTTPS.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">Verify that your website is fully accessible via HTTPS.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><strong>5. Keep Certificates Updated</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;">SSL certificates have expiration dates. Ensure certificates are renewed before they expire and check your website regularly to maintain uninterrupted secure connections.</span><br />  ]]>

<![CDATA[
	<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">How to Set Up and Troubleshoot DNSSEC for Your Domain?</span></strong><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC helps protect your domain’s DNS records from being tampered with during DNS resolution. It adds a layer of verification so that DNS resolvers can confirm the DNS response really comes from the correct source.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">At NiceNIC, DNSSEC usually involves two sides:</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Your DNS provider or nameserver provider generates the DNSSEC records.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> NiceNIC, as your domain registrar, helps submit the DS records to the registry when the TLD supports DNSSEC.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If DNSSEC is not configured correctly, your domain may show DNSSEC errors, or in more serious cases, some users may not be able to access your website.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">What Is DNSSEC?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC stands for Domain Name System Security Extensions.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> In simple terms, DNSSEC helps verify that the DNS answer for your domain has not been changed or forged during the lookup process.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> For example, when someone visits your website, DNS is used to find the correct server IP address. DNSSEC helps make sure that the DNS result is authentic and has not been replaced with false data.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC does not replace SSL, website security, hosting security, or email security. It only helps protect the DNS resolution process.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">When Do You Need DNSSEC?</span></strong><br />
<ol>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">You may want to enable DNSSEC if:</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your website handles sensitive user information.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">You run business email, login systems, payment pages, or customer portals.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">You want stronger domain security.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your DNS provider supports DNSSEC.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your domain extension supports DNSSEC.</span> 
	</li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size:16px;">If you are not familiar with DNS management, we recommend confirming with your DNS provider before enabling DNSSEC.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Incorrect DNSSEC settings may affect domain resolution.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Important DNSSEC Terms</span></strong><br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">DNSKEY:&nbsp;</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">A DNSKEY record is generated by your DNS provider. It is used as part of the DNSSEC validation process.</span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">DS Record:&nbsp;</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">A DS record connects your domain’s DNSSEC setup with the parent registry zone.&nbsp;In most cases, your DNS provider gives you the DS record, and you need to add it through your registrar.</span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Nameserver:&nbsp;</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Your nameservers decide where your domain’s DNS records are managed. If you change nameservers, your DNSSEC records may also need to be updated.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">How to Enable DNSSEC for Your Domain</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Step 1: Check Whether Your DNS Provider Supports DNSSEC</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Log in to the platform where your DNS is managed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> This may be:</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Your domain registrar, here is&nbsp;NiceNIC</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Your hosting provider</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Your DNS provider</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Your own DNS server</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Another third-party DNS service</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Make sure DNSSEC is supported and enabled there.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Step 2: Get the DS Record from Your DNS Provider</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> After enabling DNSSEC, your DNS provider should provide DNSSEC information such as:</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Key Tag</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Algorithm</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Digest Type</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Digest</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DS Record</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Please copy the information exactly as provided.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Even one incorrect character may cause DNSSEC validation failure.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Step 3: Add the DS Record in Your NiceNIC Account</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Log in to your NiceNIC account and go to your domain management page.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Then add the DS record provided by your DNS provider.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you are not sure where to add it, please contact our support team and provide the DS record from your DNS provider.</span><br />
<br />
<strong></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Step 4: Wait for DNSSEC Propagation</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> After the DS record is added, it may take some time for the update to propagate.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> During this period, DNSSEC check results may not update immediately.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Step 5: Verify DNSSEC Status</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> After propagation, you may check your domain’s DNSSEC status using a DNSSEC checking tool or by contacting our support team.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If DNSSEC is correctly configured, the DNSSEC validation result should show a valid chain of trust.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">When Should You Disable or Remove DNSSEC?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> You may need to remove or update DNSSEC records if:</span><br />
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">You changed your nameservers.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">You moved DNS management to another provider.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your DNS provider disabled DNSSEC.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your DS record no longer matches the current DNSKEY.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your website or email has DNS resolution issues after a DNS change.</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size:16px;">Important: If your domain has old DS records but the current nameservers no longer provide matching DNSSEC records, DNSSEC validation may fail.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> In this case, you may need to remove the old DS records first, wait for propagation, and then re-enable DNSSEC with the correct new records.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Why Does My Domain Show "DNSSEC Information Is Currently Unavailable"?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> You may see this message:</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC information is currently unavailable for this domain.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> This can happen for several reasons:</span><br />
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">DNSSEC has not been enabled for this domain.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">No DS record has been added at the registrar level.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The domain’s current nameservers do not support DNSSEC.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The domain recently changed nameservers.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The DS record does not match the current DNSKEY.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The DNS provider has not published the required DNSSEC records correctly.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The registry or DNSSEC query is temporarily unavailable.</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size:16px;">This message does not always mean your domain is broken.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> However, if your website or email is not resolving correctly, please contact support so we can help review the DNSSEC configuration.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">What Information Should I Provide to Support?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> To help us check DNSSEC issues faster, please provide:</span><br />
<ol>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your domain name</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Your current nameservers</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether you recently changed nameservers</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">The DS record provided by your DNS provider</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">A screenshot of the DNSSEC setting from your DNS provider</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Any DNSSEC error message you received</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether your website or email is currently affected</span> 
	</li>
</ol>
<span style="font-size:16px;">With this information, our support team can check whether the issue is caused by missing DS records, mismatched DNSSEC records, nameserver changes, or registry-side limitations.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Frequently Asked Questions About DNSSEC</span></strong><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">1. Is DNSSEC required for every domain?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> No. DNSSEC is not required for every domain.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> However, it is recommended for domains that need stronger DNS security, especially business websites, email services, login systems, financial services, and customer portals.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you are not sure whether you need DNSSEC, please confirm whether your DNS provider supports it and whether you are comfortable managing DNSSEC records.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">2. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Is DNSSEC the same as SSL?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> No.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> SSL protects the connection between the user’s browser and your website.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC protects DNS resolution by helping verify that DNS responses have not been tampered with.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> For better security, many websites use both SSL and DNSSEC, but they are different technologies.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">3. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Can NiceNIC generate DNSSEC records for me?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> In most cases, DNSSEC records are generated by your DNS provider, not by the registrar.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> NiceNIC can help submit the DS record to the registry when the domain extension supports DNSSEC.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you use a third-party DNS provider, please enable DNSSEC there first and then provide us with the DS record.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">4. Why does DNSSEC fail after I change nameservers?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> This is one of the most common DNSSEC issues.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> When you change nameservers, your old DNSSEC records may no longer match the new DNS provider’s DNSKEY.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If the old DS record remains active at the registry level, DNSSEC validation may fail.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Before or after changing nameservers, you should check whether the DS record needs to be removed or replaced.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">5. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">What happens if the DS record is wrong?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If the DS record does not match the DNSKEY published by your current DNS provider, DNSSEC validation may fail.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> This may cause some DNS resolvers to reject the DNS response.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> As a result, your website, email, or other services may become unreachable for some users.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">6. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">I do not use DNSSEC. Do I need to do anything?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you do not use DNSSEC and your domain has no DS records, usually no action is needed.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> However, if your domain has old DS records from a previous DNS provider, you should remove them to avoid DNSSEC validation problems.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">7. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Why does my DNSSEC status still show an error after I updated the record?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> DNSSEC updates may take time to propagate.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you recently added, removed, or changed DS records, please wait for DNS propagation and check again later.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If the issue continues, please contact support and provide your domain name, current nameservers, and DS record.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">8. Can DNSSEC cause my website to stop working?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Yes, if DNSSEC is incorrectly configured.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Common causes include:</span><br />
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Wrong DS record</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Old DS record after nameserver change</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Missing DNSKEY</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">DNS provider not publishing DNSSEC records correctly</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Expired or invalid DNSSEC signatures</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size:16px;">If your website stops working after DNSSEC changes, please contact support immediately.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">9. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Should I remove DNSSEC before changing nameservers?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> In many cases, yes.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> If you are moving to a new DNS provider and you are not sure how to migrate DNSSEC safely, removing the old DS record before changing nameservers can reduce the risk of DNSSEC validation failure.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> After the new nameservers are active and DNSSEC is enabled at the new DNS provider, you can add the new DS record again.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">10. </span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">What should I do if I see “Failure to get DNSSEC info”?</span></strong><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> This usually means the system could not retrieve valid DNSSEC information for the domain.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> Please check:</span><br />
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether DNSSEC is enabled</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether the DS record has been added</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether the nameservers support DNSSEC</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether the DS record matches the DNSKEY</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Whether you recently changed nameservers</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<span style="font-size:16px;">If you are not sure, please contact NiceNIC support and provide your domain name and DNSSEC details from your DNS provider.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;"><strong>How to set up DNSSEC for a domain registered on NiceNIC?<br />
</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> 1.&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;">Log in to your NiceNIC account and navigate to your domain management page.&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><span style="font-size:16px;">Find the domain you wish to enable DNSSEC for and click Manage.</span><br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align:center;">
	<span style="font-size:16px;">&nbsp;</span><img src="http://img.pc51.com/webimage/img/image/20260420/20260420182531_49076.png" width="950" alt="" /> 
</div>
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:14px;"><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> 2. In the domain management section, you should see the DNSSEC button.&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;">Click on the DNSSEC button to access the DNSSEC settings page.</span><br />
<div style="text-align:center;">
	<span style="font-size:16px;">&nbsp;</span><img src="http://img.pc51.com/webimage/img/image/20260420/20260420182408_11547.png" width="950" height="454" alt="" /> 
</div>
<br />
<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;">3. Enter the required information for DNSSEC configuration (this will typically include DNSSEC key details provided by your DNS hosting provider).</span><br />
<div style="text-align:center;">
	<span style="font-size:16px;">&nbsp;</span><img src="http://img.pc51.com/webimage/img/image/20260420/20260420182447_28095.png" width="950" alt="" /> 
</div>
<br />
<p>
	<span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;">4. Once you've entered the information, click Add to enable DNSSEC for the domain.&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:16px;font-style:inherit;font-variant-ligatures:inherit;font-variant-caps:inherit;font-weight:inherit;">Here’s an example of a successful DNSSEC setup:</span>

</p>
<div style="text-align:center;">
	<span style="font-size:16px;">&nbsp;</span><img src="http://img.pc51.com/webimage/img/image/20250724/20250724230610_48852.png" width="950" title="DNSSEC" alt="DNSSEC" /> 
</div>
<br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">After entering the necessary DNSSEC key data (usually the DS record), you'll receive confirmation that DNSSEC has been successfully added to your domain settings.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> The DNSSEC status will show as enabled and you'll be able to see the public keys and other details.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"> With DNSSEC now enabled, your domain is better protected against DNS-related attacks.</span><br />
<br />
<strong><span style="color:#E53333;font-size:16px;">Attention: if your domain name was transferred into NiceNIC from another Registrar, and you hope to disable the DNSSEC</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> previously with the old Registrar, please firstly check the latest whois, if you see "DNSSEC: unsigned", then it means during the domain transfer process, the DNSSEC settings have been disabled automatically by the old Registrar, while if it is "DNSSEC: signed", please check the domain management section at your control panel at NiceNIC, you should see the DNSSEC button, please click on the DNSSEC button to access the DNSSEC settings page.</span><br />  ]]>

	<p>
	<span style="font-size:18px;"><strong>Transferring Name Servers During a Domain Transfer</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">If you're just transferring the domain registration, your hosting service will be unaffected, and there will be no need to change name servers. Although the name servers should be transferred as part of the process, it's always a good idea to have a record of them.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span></span><span style="font-size:16px;">If you wish to specify the name servers to the default DNS servers as provided by NiceNIC you can reset the name servers after the transfer has been completed.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong></strong></span><span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>Steps</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Login to your account.</span> <span style="font-size:16px;">Select the Domain Names tab.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">Select the domain that you want to change name servers for.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">From within the DNS Servers section click on Edit DNS Server.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">Change the name servers as required, leaving any of the fields blank will retain the original DNS server.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span></span><span style="font-size:16px;">The name servers are not actually changed until the transfer process is complete. If you wish to make an immediate change to the name servers, you may do so with the Registrar you are transferring from.</span>

</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span><span style="font-size:16px;">Before purchasing the transfer of any </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">gTLD</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> (e.g.,&nbsp; </span><span style="color:#E53333;font-size:16px;">.COM</span><span style="font-size:16px;"> / .NET / </span><span style="color:#E53333;font-size:16px;">.ORG</span><span style="font-size:16px;"> / .BIZ / </span><span style="color:#E53333;font-size:16px;">.INFO</span><span style="font-size:16px;"> etc.) or </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">new gTLD</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> (e.g. </span><span style="color:#E53333;font-size:16px;">.CLUB</span><span style="font-size:16px;"> / .CLOUD / .TRADE / .TOP etc.), make sure your domain meets the following conditions:</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span><span style="font-size:16px;">1. Your domain was registered or transferred </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">at least 60 days ago</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">;</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span><span style="font-size:16px;">2. The domain is </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">unlocked</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> at the current Registrar (its Whois status should be OK or Active).</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span><span style="font-size:16px;">Also,you need to </span><span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>request an up-to-date Auth/EPPcode</strong></span><span style="font-size:16px;"> for the domain at your current Registrar.</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">If all criteria are met, you should be able to complete the transfer successfully.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span><span style="font-size:16px;">Still, some </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">ccTLDs</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> (.ES and </span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">.UK</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">) have additional transfer requirements and/or exclude some points from the list above.</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">NOTE:</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> Make sure the domain status is active, not expired.

	<p>
	<span style="font-size:18px;"><strong>How to transfer several domains to NiceNIC in bulk?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Before submitting a transfer request with NiceNIC, make sure your domains are prepared for transfer through your current registrar. This is generally done by removing transfer locks and getting the necessary Auth codes.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Learn how to prepare domains for transfer in accounts sections of several popular registrars.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Once those preparations are made, simply follow the steps below to transfer your domains:</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Note:</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> Each domain has a unique Auth code and has to be unlocked for transfer separately on the current registrar side.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Log in to your NiceNIC account.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Go to the Transfer to Us page.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Click on Bulk options.</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>

</p>
<p>

</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:14px;"></span><span style="font-size:16px;">Enter the domain names and the Auth codes;</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Note:</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> Enter each domain and its Auth code in a new line. The Auth code has to be separated from the domain name by a comma and one space.</span><span style="font-size:16px;"> </span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Click on Start Transfer at the bottom of the page.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Double-check the domain names and add them to Cart. To do this, you can use the Add all to cart button for convenience.</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">Proceed with the payment.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">The transfer is completed automatically in 5-7 days for most domains. Once the transfer of your domains is completed you will receive the notifications on your NiceNIC Primary Email address, and the domains will become manageable in your Domain List.</span><span><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Note: </span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Due to technical reasons, it is only possible to submit the transfer for up to 10 domain names at once. If you need to transfer more than 10 domains, you can either submit several Bulk Transfer orders or contact our Support Team for assistance.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong><br />
<br />
<br />
How to Check the Status of Your Domain Transfer</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">After initiating a domain transfer to Nicenic, you can monitor its progress directly in your account. This helps you know when the transfer is expected to complete without needing to contact support repeatedly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">Steps to View Transfer Status:<br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>1. Log in to your NiceNIC account. Go to "My Produ</strong><strong>cts &gt; Domain Names".</strong></span><br />
<span style="font-size:16px;">In the Status column, you will see your domain listed as:</span> 
</p>
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Pending Transfer: the transfer has been submitted and is in progress.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">Active / Transfer Completed: the transfer is finished.</span> 
	</li>

	<p>
	<span style="font-size:22px;"><strong>SPF Guide</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>1. What is SPF?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Answer:</span></strong><span style="font-size:16px;"> SPF stands for Sender Policy Framework. SPF is an email authentication standard used to prevent email fraud and spam. It ensures the authenticity and reliability of email by verifying that the sender's domain name matches the source IP address of the email. SPF records are stored in the DNS record of the domain name and contain a list of servers that are allowed to send emails. When the recipient receives an email, it checks whether the sender's domain name has an SPF record and verifies whether the IP address of the sending server is in the allowed list. If the verification fails, the recipient may mark the email as spam or refuse to receive it. Using SPF can help improve the delivery rate and reliability of emails and reduce the amount of spam. At the same time, it can also enhance the security of the email system and prevent hackers and fraudsters from using forged domain names to send emails.</span></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>2. How to set up SPF for corporate mailboxes?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>Answer:</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">1. Determine the outgoing server IP addresses of your corporate mailbox: These addresses will be added to the SPF record. 2. Log in to the DNS management console of your corporate mailbox: Usually provided by your domain name registrar or hosting provider</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">2. Create or edit a TXT record: In the DNS console, find the TXT record or similar option</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">3. Enter the SPF record: The format of the SPF record is "v=spf1 +a/+mx +ip4 +ip4:mail.example.com -all", where:</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">"v=spf1": specifies the SPF version</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">"a" or "mx": indicates that the server is allowed to be verified by the A record or MX record</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">"ip4": lists the IP addresses that are allowed to send mail</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">"mail.coremail.cn": replaced with the domain name of your corporate mailbox</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">"-all": indicates that mail from all other sources is rejected</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">4. Save changes: Make sure the settings in the DNS console are saved correctly</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>3. How to set various types of SPF?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">1) Make SPF record with domain name a record (take coremail.cn as an example)</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">v=spf1 a:coremail.cn2 -all</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">2) Make SPF record with domain name mx record</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">v=spf1 mx -all</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">3) Make SPF record with domain name ptr record</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">v=spf1 ptr -all</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">4) Make SPF record with export IP and IP segment settings</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">v=spf1 ip4:106.52.172.248 ip4:61.164.47.194/28 -all</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">5) Introduce SPF records of other domain names (take spf.icoremail.net as an example)</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">v=spf1 include:spf.icoremail.net</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Note: The above records can be used in combination, but only one pair of records starting with v=spf1 and ending with -all can appear in the entire txt. For example: v=spf1 mx ip4:106.52.172.248 include:spf.icoremail.net -all</span>

	<p>
	<span style="font-size:18px;color:#b40026;"><strong>How do I check my certificate was installed correctly?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">To be sure that the certificate has been installed correctly and working properly, as well as that your customers are certain a secured connection is enabled and it covers data transmission through your website, you have the following indicators:</span> 
</p>
<ul>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">A padlock/tune icon available in the URL bar.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">No error messages/ warnings occurred when connecting through https://yourdomain.tld.</span> 
	</li>
	<li>
		<span style="font-size:16px;">A Site Seal provided by the Certificate Authority installed and visible.</span> 
	</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>Note :</strong> From September 2023, the padlock icon will be replaced by a tune icon in the new Chrome browser version. Google's reasoning is that&#8194;secured HTTPS connections have become the online norm, not the exception, and no longer serve as a trust indicator. As such, the tune icon itself will not be a trust indicator but will provide detailed information about a website's connection and settings. So moving forward, when using a Chrome browser, the primary indication of a successful SSL certificate installation on a site will be the absence of security warnings :</span>

	<p>
	<span style="font-size:18px;color:#b40026;"><strong>What is an SSL certificate and what is it used for?</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>1. Introduction</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">SSL certificates are used to create an encrypted channel between the client and the server. Transmission of such data as credit card details, account login information, any other sensitive information should be encrypted to prevent eavesdropping.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">With an SSL certificate, data is encrypted prior to being transmitted via Internet. Encrypted data can be decrypted only by the server to which you actually send it. This ensures that the information you submit to websites will not be stolen.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Starting from 06/08/2014, Google announced that having an SSL certificate installed on your website would increase your ranking position, which is another great reason to use an SSL.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">The certificate itself represents base64 encoded data that contains information about the entity the certificate was issued for, public key required for encryption and digital signature verification, and digital signature created with the private key of the certificate issuer.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">An SSL certificate should be installed on the server side. When you access a website secured by an SSL certificate issued by a trusted Certification Authority, you will see https:// at the beginning of its URL. A browser will also show the connection as secure by displaying a “lock” icon in the address bar:</span>

<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><img src="http://img.pc51.com/webimage/img/image/20250424/20250424142606_54351.png" alt="" /><br />
</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;"><strong>2. Types of SSL certificates</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">SSL certificates can be divided into 3 validation groups:</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Domain Validation Certificates</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Requires a certificate applicant to prove his/her control over the domain name only. The issued certificate contains a domain name that was supplied to the Certification Authority within the certificate request.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Organization Validation Certificates</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Requires a certificate applicant to prove that his/her company is a registered and legally accountable business, and to pass domain validation. The issued certificate contains a domain and company name of the certificate applicant.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Extended Validation Certificates</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Includes validation requirements of two validation types mentioned above and additional requirements. The issued certificate contains a domain and company name of the certificate applicant.</span>

	<span style="font-size:18px;color:#b40026;"><strong>How to install SSL certificates</strong></span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">SSL certificate installation is typically performed by the hosting company that provides services for the domain. However, you may also choose install an SSL certificate yourself. Select your server type from the list below to find detailed instructions for installation.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">The SSL on your domain name was activated, please find and add the DNS records to complete the verification before you can download the SSL files through your control panel:</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">My Account &gt; My Products &gt; SSL Certificates &gt; Detail &gt; ....</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">After you complete the DNS record's verification, you can download the SSL files by the same approach.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Installing SSL Certificate Notes</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">If you host your domain name with NiceNIC, simply provide us with your certificate and we'll be happy to install it for you.</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">Please note that on all NiceNIC, Shared Hosting servers, a special NiceNIC, SSL plugin installs a 1-year free PositiveSSL certificate automatically on the newly added subdomain or add-on. It works the same way for the main domain in the newly purchased hosting account. The plugin can also be used for manual installation (in a few clicks) of PositiveSSL and EssentialSSL certificates.&nbsp;</span> 
</p>
<p>
	<br />
</p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:16px;">A dedicated IP address is required to install an SSL certificate. However, you may install your SSL certificate on a shared IP address using the Server Name Indication (SNI) protocol extension available in your cPanel. You can learn more about the differences between a dedicated IP and SNI technology in this article.</span>
