    Newbie question I'm building up my domain name portfolio and i'm concerned that my name and home address is displayed on the whois details for .co.uk and .coms.

    I would like these not to show on whois or perhaps should i open a p.o box , i think in the long run it maybe the best thing.

    But how do i ? or can i ? set my current domain names to not show my details and if so , how long does it take?

    if i do open a p.o box for my address , how easy is it to change all my current domain name reg details to show the new P.O box address?

    Also i use godaddy and 123reg , is it easy to update the account details so that all new reg's and transfered domain names to my accounts will show the new address?

    thanks for the advice...

    More often than not, it is. Using a service provider's privacy service has much
    more limits, namely providing the actual information upon receipt of an order
    from a court of competent jurisdiction, or a UDRP notice if you're using that of
    your registrar.

    Just log inside your domain name account and change the details accordingly.
    Ask your provider for more information on how to do so in their systems.
