What are Domain Contacts?
Domain contacts are a list of contacts for people or entities that are responsible for a given domain name. When registering a domain, those contacts are published to the Whois public database. It is required by ICANN (the governing body for domain names) that the list of contacts for a domain be kept up to date and accurate. Failure to do so may result in your domain being suspended or revoked.
