The Domain Name System (DNS) is a hierarchical distributed naming system for computers, services, or any resource connected to the Internet or a private network. It associates various information with domain names assigned to each of the participating entities. Most importantly, it translates domain names meaningful to humans into the numerical identifiers associated with networking equipment for the purpose of locating and addressing these devices worldwide.

Theoretically domain names can work with only one name server we call this the primary DNS. However, imagine what happens if this DNS goes offline? There are enough examples where a domain name needed at least two name servers assigned in order to be available at any time. This back-up requirement has turned into an accepted Internet standard that prevents domain names from going offline.

Getting your account verified is quick and easy with our automated verification system.

To use the automated system, please log into your Above.com account and click on the Account Status Restricted link beside your account name in the upper right.

From here you can see what has not been verified and can then use the verification link to verify that item.

We verify accounts in order to know whom we are working with. This reduces the likelihood of fraud and as a result keeps our cost and your price as low as possible.

Two Step Authentication (also known as Two-factor authentication or 2FA) is an added layer of security requiring a unique code is entered whenever performing changes to domains in your account. Two Step Authentication prevents the following functions from being used without the unique code: set DNS, view/add/delete DNS records, domain Push, domain Delete, Request authcode and URL Forwarding/Redirection.

Back up codes can only be used only once. If new codes are generated, all previous codes generated will no longer work.

Using the Above.com Registrar API is free for approved applicants.

Most TLDs supported by Above.com Registrar are supported through our API. To see a list of supported TLDs, please use the Check Pricing API function.

Please submit your application for API access via the API request form.

Domain privacy is a service offered by a number of domain name registrars. A user buys privacy from the company, who in turn replaces the user's info in the WHOIS with the info of a forwarding service (for email and sometimes postal mail, done by a proxy server).

The domain privacy service at Above.com is included in your domain registration costs.
