Yes, your domain name is registered publicly with the WHOIS data, by law, unless you pay extra to have it registered as a private domain. It doesn't matter WHERE you go, so GoDaddy is no exception. It's all about the private vs. public. Some hosting sites have a perk of free private domain registration. You just have to check with each hosting company individually.Christie Wright Wildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13656162315858480593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071530951319652632.post-20917548936881563362012-10-18T10:30:51.105-04:002012-10-18T10:30:51.105-04:00Now, that, I don't know.

I do know, however, that there are blockers you can download to go with your browser to block your information from being collected with statistic collectors and analytics information. I'm not sure what they are, but they are available. Here's GoDaddy's <a href="http://www.godaddy.com/agreements/showdoc.aspx?pageid=PRIVACY&ci=20803&app_hdr=0" rel="nofollow">privacy policy</a>. I know of a web designer who trusts GoDaddy, so I don't see a huge risk or threat, but you can always do your own research.Christie Wright Wildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13656162315858480593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1071530951319652632.post-58533907373380466952012-10-18T09:05:34.749-04:002012-10-18T09:05:34.749-04:00Thanks a lot Christie.

Is that true? it sounded a bit weird because I've always assumed they were the place to go for a domain name.

Most of the website for author companies out there focus on adult fiction writers. I've only seen a few that focus on children's writing (what I'll focus on.)
