Transferring domains

[Tommyb147]

Hi,

I have a domain that I think will sell shortly (first ever) and was wondering if you could provide me more information on how to transfer the domain name? Any links etc will be great.

Thanks

If its a .uk then must be done via nominet

Yeah I can see that but I can find a place to register, if you are not a member can you still transfer the domain?

Just click the "First time logging in or forgotten your password?"

Tried this earlier with no success - It has just worked first time now.

Thanks

Easily you can do it, just ask who is going to buy your domain; when he is transferring your domain name to his host, then they will ask a security code to verify which will be noticed you, once you provide your client the code domain will be transferred.

@ sumonrahman, he's talking about a .co.uk domain name, not a .com or other extension, there are no codes in .UK domains, just a domain transfer, which you accept and choose which registrar tag you want the domain on.

Systreg is correct. .com and others could actually learn a thing or two from the .uk transfer process, which is without doubt the best. Transferring .com's and such can be a right pain.
