The purpose of this tutorial is to help you get started when you are transferring your domain from DomainSite.com to FatCat Servers.
There are several things that must take place before you can begin to transfer your domain name.
This tutorial assumes that you already have a domain registered with DomainSite.com, and we are going to start on their home page.
The first thing you must do is make sure the domain name is not locked or it will be prevented from transfer away from DomainSite.com.
- Begin by clicking on the My Account link in the right hand corner. Enter your DomainSite.com account username and password in the boxes on the log-in screen. Now click on the Submit button. You are now logged in to your DomainSite.com account.
- Click on the Select button on the left hand side for Manage Registered Domain Names. This opens a screen with all your domains. Now select the domain for which you want to remove the registry lock by clicking on the domain name. This opens the Manage Domain Name screen.
- Click on the Unlock Domain link. The next screen will verify that the lock has now been removed from the domain name, so it can now be transferred to another domain registry.
The lock has now been removed from the domain name, so it can be transferred to FatCat Servers Web Hosting.
Next you should verify that your Contact Info is correct and up-to-date. The transfer request approval will be emailed to the administrative contact, and must have action for transfer to proceed.
And finally you should obtain the transfer authorization code. It is the authorization code that allows the registries to permit the transfer of your domain name. This code is needed by FatCat Servers to begin the transfer process.
Note: The transfer code may be called by a different name I.E. EPP Code, Key Code, Transfer Key, etc.
When finished, click the log out link, at the top of the left hand side of the page.
You are now ready to transfer your domain, or contact support to initiate the domain transfer request.
This ends this tutorial. You now know how to unlock your domain at DomainSite.com, so it can be transferred to FatCat Servers Web Hosting.
