Domain Name Registration is a bit easy but it is not the same case when we try to Transfer a domain name from one Registrar to another Registrar. I have recently decided to transfer some of my domain names to another Registrar.
Maybe you ask why someone will transfer a domain name to another Registrar. Well you are right, i used to think same in the past. As i have never any problem with current domain name registrar. Well some possible issues can be customer service, add on services, cost and contract between customer and the company, company’s policy regarding spam policy and much more like that.
You know, most famous and first registrar for new comers is GoDaddy.com. Yes it is fact. The domain names i am going to transfer are currently managed by Godaddy as a domain Registrar. And the big reason to transfer the domain name from them is THEIR SPAM POLICY and DOMAIN OWNERSHIP policy after a spam complain is received. What they do is suspend the domain name and may take charge of your domain name, if they receive spam complains about that domain name. Then you can never transfer or take charge again of that domain name. Yes it is the case.
To avoid this possible disaster, i have decided to transfer domain names from Godaddy to NameCheap.com , as so far this is the best registrar in the opinion of many friends of mine in IM.
Well to domain name transfer process is simple. Go to the new domain name Registrar and follow the instructions. During the process you need, EPP Authorization Key or Registrar Authorization Code, even one of my current registrar (other than godaddy.com) used the word there called DOMAIN SECRET instead of EPP. But it is same thing with different names.
EPP, Domain Secret, or Regauthorization code whatever they call it,can be found in your current domain name control panel or you can ask the current domain name registrar directly about this code.
