Transferring an Existing Domain Name

Follow these steps to transfer an already registered Domain Name that is currently being hosted by another provider to your Virtual Server.

NOTE: These directions apply only if you will be using our name servers to resolve your existing domain. If you plan to use other name servers to resolve your domain, you are responsible for modifying the domain name setup in those name servers so that it is correctly pointed to your Virtual Server.

  1. Order the New Domain or Virtual Server
    Use the "ADD Domain" link in the Customer Support site if you are adding the new domain to an existing Virtual Server. Your new domain name will be added to our name servers within 48 hours.

  2. Upload Existing Content
    Upload the existing content affiliated with the domain name you are transferring (using an FTP client, for example) from your current hosting provider to the Virtual Server that will be hosting the domain name.

  3. Modify the Existing Domain Name Registration
    Only after you are sure that your new domain name and content are working correctly, you should submit a domain name modification request to the appropriate domain name registrar. Modify the domain name registration information with your registrar by sending them a modification request. You must modify the Primary and Secondary Name Server information so that the domain is resolved by our Primary and Secondary Name Servers.
