Hi Ed,<br>
<br>
So transferring is usually pretty easy - the domain needs to be
unlocked and you need the authorization code/domain secret from the
originating registrar, and then find the "Domain Transfer" section
of the registrar you want to move to and follow the instructions,
enter the authcode along with the domain name along with your
information. An approval email will be sent to the main contact for
the domain, that needs to be approved (typically clicking a link in
the email and maybe clicking a button after that). Depending on the
registrars, it's usually transferred in about a week. <br>
<br>
If you have a bunch of domains to transfer, a lot of registrars have
a "bulk transfer" option where you can enter all your domains and
their authcodes at once. <br>
<br>
Does that answer your question?<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Christine,<br>
<br>
Yes, to have a website you need web hosting and a domain name,
which you can get separately or a lot of companies offer both.
There are lots of registrars, some good ones include <br>
<br>

<br>
Here's a nice chart of .com prices for some registrars.<br>

I don't recommend GoDaddy, they are expensive and they nickel
and dime you, and I disapprove of their tactic of saying
"Starting at" and quoting a low price without letting you know
that the next year it's going to jump up by a lot. Very slimy.
The one benefit is that they have basic domain protection
(whois protection) to keep your information private, but a lot
of companies are offering that now. <br>
