<h2><b>Why does domain privacy matter? 3 reasons</b></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You might be wondering, what can go wrong if your domain privacy is not protected, well, hear these out.</span></p>
<h3><b>#1. You get bombarded with unsolicited sales calls or worse, scammed</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I know of a close friend with more than five domains.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And before he had domain privacy installed, he used to receive at least seven emails per day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">His inbox looked something this;</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now, imagine such emails coming into your primary address or business email daily.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Scary, right?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And that is not worse.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sometimes, they look really legit.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Scammers take your contact details and rob you in broad daylight.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And you might end up buying things you don’t really need.</span></p>
<h3><b>#2. Your personal data can be accessed by anyone</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember when you registered your domain?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">You provided contact details including your phone number and email address.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Heck, even your home address.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hold onto your seat buddy, because what I am about to tell you might shake your roots.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not to sound scary, but without domain name privacy protection, that data can be accessed by anyone online.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This is a huge risk especially if you in the process of building something huge or creating a project you’d like to keep under the radar.</span></p>
<h3><b>#3. You risk getting hacked</b></h3>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Remember how much it took you to bring your website to where it is today?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Imagine all of that effort going by wind, like boof! Never existed!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Now stop imagining and get domain name privacy protection because that can happen anytime.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Websites get hacked every day.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In fact, by 2021, a business will fall victim to <a href="https://review42.com/resources/hacking-statistics/">ransomware every 11 seconds</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Oops!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Guess what?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">99.9% of accounts get hacked because of this one single reason.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not using multi-factor authentication.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">See, most accounts get hacked because of weak passwords. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sadly, most people use their names or personal details to create passwords.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">And with your details online, hackers can easily implement password spraying to hack into your website.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once they gain control, they can transfer it to someone else without your consent.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Want to avoid that, don’t you?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">One, use complex passwords and implement 2-factor authentication.</span></p>
