When your landlord becomes difficult to deal with, you move. Your trigger can be anything from increased rent to poor repair support. The same goes for your website domain \u2013 is your current domain provider becoming difficult to deal with? Should you transfer domain ownership<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re asking yourself these questions, this blog is here to help. From whether you should transfer your domain to a new host<\/strong> to how to transfer domain ownership<\/strong>, we cover all the pressing questions.<\/p>\n

When Do You Need to Transfer Domain Ownership<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Security<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your digital front door needs to be unassailable \u2013 and that\u2019s non-negotiable. In fact, studies show that 60% of companies<\/a> affected by a security breach are likely to go out of business due to reputational damage.<\/p>\n

In case you suspect that your website has been breached and you\u2019re no longer in total control over it, it may be time to move the domain to a new host<\/strong>. This time, when you transfer domain ownership<\/strong>, check to make sure that your new registrar offers 360-degree website security<\/a> against potential cyber threats.<\/p>\n

Customer Service<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Website glitches are unavoidable; and when they happen, you need reliable support.<\/p>\n

A stitch in time saves nine (thousand). When customer support does its job well and helps you fix little bugs in a timely manner, you don\u2019t have to face an unmanageably big problem later. Small points like locked domains, technical concerns, or even doubt resolution \u2013 accredited domain name providers have uber-responsive and knowledgeable staff at your service.<\/p>\n

But if your current registrar fails to come through with the needful, it may be time to transfer the domain to another registrar<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

User Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n

When you partner with a registrar, it\u2019s natural for you to expect them to do all the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am trapped in a jargon-filled world\u201d, \u201cThis UI is confusing and frustrating\u201d, \u201cIt\u2019s a small change but it\u2019s taking me hours to figure out!\u201d<\/p>\n

Is your current provider making you feel lost? If yes, that\u2019s not a good user experience. In fact, your journey of choosing a domain<\/a> starts here.<\/p>\n

A good domain provider has features and settings that are made for non-tech business leaders. Transfer domain ownership<\/strong> to a registrar that makes you feel like a powerful website wizard.<\/p>\n

Privacy<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Privacy matters aren\u2019t restricted to just you and your business \u2013 your customers\u2019 data is valuable, too. From business records to personal data, there is a lot to steal and misuse. That data is your Achilles heel, so we suggest putting a lot of thought into your shoes.<\/p>\n

The right shoes give you plenty of freedom while protecting your vulnerable points. You shouldn\u2019t have to compromise on privacy, and neither should your customers. If you feel like your current provider might not be fully transparent when it comes to data privacy, transfer domain ownership<\/strong> immediately.<\/p>\n

Cost<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\u201cWant to use this basic feature? Pay up!\u201d, \u201cWe did not initially reveal these extra costs, but we\u2019re telling you now\u201d.<\/p>\n

Hidden charges \u2013 mankind\u2019s worst enemy.<\/p>\n

They might not even be a lot, but it\u2019s a matter of principle. If you face this betrayal from your provider, you know it\u2019s time to transfer your domain to a new host<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In some other cases, the domain costs start off alright, but they suddenly shoot up later. Or maybe, you were able to afford the costs before, and now you need more affordable options.<\/p>\n

Whatever the case may be, you should move your domain to a new host <\/strong>without further delay.<\/p>\n

How to Transfer a Domain to A New Host<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Now that you\u2019ve gone from \u201cShould I transfer domain ownership<\/strong>?\u201d to \u201cHow to transfer domain ownership<\/strong>?\u201d, we\u2019ll look at the process.<\/p>\n

Buy Domain<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Start by picking an available domain and staking your claim on it. This is the step where you prepare your domain for transfer.<\/p>\n

You can\u2019t transfer something that you don\u2019t own \u2013 so you\u2019ll need to unlock\/buy the domain to kickstart the transfer process. You\u2019ll also need the auth\/EPP code from your current registrar. It\u2019s a kind of password that disallows hackers from wrongly transferring your domain name.<\/p>\n

Start Transfer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To transfer the domain to a new host<\/strong>, you\u2019ll begin by creating an account with the new provider. Then, enter the domain name and enter the auth code from the previous registrar to start the transfer process.<\/p>\n

Approve Transfer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

To approve the transfer of the domain to another registrar<\/strong>, you will be asked to confirm your contact details.<\/p>\n

At this stage, the new provider may prompt you to make a payment to successfully transfer domain ownership<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Transfer Accepted<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Once the transfer is confirmed, the old registrar releases your domain. Your new provider might take a few business days to complete the process.<\/p>\n

But in the meantime, your domain and website should remain functional.<\/p>\n

Points to Consider Before Transferring Domain to Another Registrar\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Domain Transfer Eligibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Verify that you are eligible to move your domain to a new host<\/strong>. Different registrars have specific transfer policies, so it’s crucial to check this beforehand.<\/p>\n

Create an Account with New Registrar<\/strong><\/h3>\n

You cannot send a Facebook friend request with a LinkedIn account.<\/p>\n

Similarly, you cannot use your account with the old domain provider to transfer your domain to a new host<\/strong> \u2013 you need to first create an account with the new provider.<\/p>\n

Don’t Renew Domain from Old Domain Provider<\/strong><\/h3>\n

ICANN\u2019s latest rule states that if you renew your domain with your previous provider, and then try to transfer the domain to another registrar <\/strong>within 45 days, you will lose credit for the renewal.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By now, you might\u2019ve figured out if there is a real need to transfer your domain to another registrar<\/strong>. And if there is, you\u2019ve seen how you can make that domain transfer<\/a> like a pro. But if you\u2019re like us, you still have a few questions floating around in your mind. They\u2019re basic and you\u2019re too afraid to voice them.<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t highschool \u2013 so we really mean it when we say that no question is too small.<\/p>\n

Domain Transfer FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Should I back up my website before transferring my domain ownership?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Absolutely. Before making any significant changes, always back up your website to ensure you have a copy of your data.<\/p>\n

Is a domain transfer the same as a website migration?<\/strong><\/p>\n

No, it\u2019s not. A domain transfer is like changing the owner’s name on a house deed, while website migration is like moving the entire contents of the house to a new location.<\/p>\n

Can I transfer an expired domain?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once expired, the domain enters a grace period \u2013 typically of 30-45 days. In this period, you can move the domain to a new host<\/strong>. But once this period is up, it is no longer eligible for transfer.<\/p>\n

Is transferring a domain easy?<\/strong><\/p>\n

While it is easy to transfer domain ownership<\/strong>, depending on the registrars and their criteria, it can be time-consuming.<\/p>\n
