In one possible embodiment, the displayed social website webpage may be the Registrant'"'"'s public webpage. In another possible embodiment, after authenticating the Registrant, identity-related data collected during the domain name registration process may be transferred to a social website. The Registrant may then be logged into the social website and his private webpage from the social website may be displayed.
