Transfer Domain
What is a domain transfer?
A domain name transfer is what happens when the registrar of the domain name gets changed. A domain name registrar is a company accredited to manage reservations/transfers of Internet domain names observing some guidelines and rules.
In short a domain name transfer is: changing the company that you registered the domain name with, while the owner of the domain name (you) stays the same. The only person who may initiate and finish a domain name transfer is the sole owner of the domain name. Read below what are the requirements to transfer a domain name.
Why people transfer their domains?
What are the reasons driving people to transfer their domain names from one company (registrar) to another?
One of the most common motives is they are not satisfied with their current company’s customer service. The other issue that happens often when changing the hosting provider is wanting to transfer your domain to your new web hosting company. The main key point of this decision is entirely shifting your web presence to one single company and thus concentrating the responsibility to this new company.
