Network Solutions is one of the original ICANN-accredited domain registrars, founded in 1979 and operator of the .com, .net and .org registries under the InterNIC/NSF cooperative agreement through the 1990s. Today it is a consumer and small-business web-services brand of Newfold Digital, selling domain registration and transfers, WHOIS lookup, shared and WordPress web hosting, SSL/TLS certificates, professional email, a website builder, and online marketing services. It operates a domain reseller program (via ResellerClub) and an affiliate program, but does not publish a public developer API, developer portal, or OpenAPI documentation for third-party integration; the reseller and affiliate channels are the only programmatic-adjacent surfaces.
