How to transfer a domain from Fast Domain-


When a domain is transferred the name servers associated with the domain will stay the same (e.g., ns1.OldRegistrar.com and ns2.OldRegistrar.com). However, as the domain is no longer with the Old Registrar, the Old Registrar??s name servers will stop responding to any queries for your domain. This causes downtime until you switch your domain to our DNS.

NOTE: If you are using a third party DNS like your hosting company, the domain transfer will not cause any downtime issues (as the DNS server settings will not change during the transfer).

Before submitting a transfer request with us please obtain EPP code (if applicable) from Fast Domain, make sure that the domain is unlocked and contact information associated with the domain is valid and up-to-date.

Please review the step-by-step guide on how to prepare your domain for transferring from Fast Domain:

Please use these instructions if you have cPanel access. If you do not have cPanel access please visit http://www.fastdomain.com/dm and you can log in with your old cPanel user name and password to administer your domains, then follow along starting at step 5.

1. Login to the cPanel
2. Find the Domains section
3. Click the Domain Manager icon
4. This should display the Hosting tab of the Domain Manager
5. Click on the Domain Manager tab
6. Here you will see the list of your domain names, registered at Fast Domain
7. Put a check mark next to the domain that you wish to transfer
8. Go to Privacy tab
9. Select the button that says "Pause Domain Privacy". If privacy is already disabled, then skip this step.
10. Next, go to Contacts tab
11. Fill out the information for the Registrant, Admin, and Billing sections. This information can be the same or different for all three sections. Please verify that all the information is valid and up-to-date, as you will need to approve the transfer by email that would be sent to the Administrative contact email.
12. Next, go to Transfer EPP tab. Here you will see the code, please copy, and forward to domreg@mainehost.com, and I will initiate the transfer.
