People are transforming their domain for a lot of confusing and irritating reason, for example a company is charging unfair amount of money with poor service, downtime issue, not supporting DNS server or any similar issue. In that situation everyone will transfer their domain from the current provider to a new and better service provider. However, if you are not satisfied with your register and looking for new service provider, then you need to go through a few simple steps and after 5-7 working days your domain will be transferred to the new register.

Now if you had made up your mind to transfer your domain, then lets understand the difference between Transferring and Pointing a Domain.



Differentiating Transferring a Domain and Pointing a Domain.

Now you must be confused about Transferring domain and pointing a domain. In a short transferring is a bit confusing and lengthy process compare to pointing a domain. Yes, we see several domain move in consistently and the reason is the client, changing the hosting support of another administration supplier. In a simple term your service provider has to just pointing the domain name to the new host. This process is only to change the DNS records (changing the domain name server).


The most tragedies part is users are transforming their domain and web hosting service to another service provider only to keep away form additional cost or unsatisfied support. However, in the article I will suggest you to change only hosting service and point your domain to the new hosting. At Hostindia.net huge number of domains are changing, reason is poor hosting service. In that confounding circumstance, I might want to propose to our user that they can go for hosting administration and point the domain name to the new hosting suppliers. Domain name exchange is long and cerebral pain process.


Note: here we is not disheartening client to exchange the domain, but rather the proposal is to spare time and cash of a client. Yes, if you think that your current domain registration is not fit for domain and hosting then defiantly you can transfer your whole service set-up to your desired hoster.

Process of transferring a domain name?

Before transferring a domain name you should have to fulfill few requirements. Here is the list


  • Your domain at least 60 days old or more than that.

  • It should not have been transferred to your current service provider within the last 60 days.

  • The domain must be released or unlocked by your current service provider.

  • Get the EPP code or transfer key form current register to transfer domain.

  • Any private or hidden who.is service should be disabled. you can disable it through the current service providers, You can check it through a whois lookup domain.


This is the slandered role created by ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). ICANN is responsible for all the transactions, maintenance and methodology of several databases of unique identifiers related to the namespaces of the internet and ensuring the network's stable and secure operation.

Once you have over come with all the condition created by ICANN then place a request to your current domain provider. After your request you will get a domain secrete code from your current Domain Register and then you have to give the secrete pin to your new registrar. After 5 business days your domain will be transferred.

There are many reasons for which domains are transforming from different suppliers to good service providers like Hostindia.net.
