How to Transfer a Domain to BuildAWebsiteTonight.com

Before you start the TRANSFER process, you need to (1) Unlock your current domain and (2) copy the EPP code for your domain (your current Domain Registrar will help you with this).

After you've done this, please follow the quick video below which will show you how to transfer a Domain to BuildAWebsiteTonight.com.

"This sounds too complex / I don't have the time / Can you do this for me?"

If you would prefer us to do this for you, please contact Teena to schedule - the fee associated with this is $75.00

The reasons you may wish to transfer a Domain:

• you may wish to have your domain and hosting with the same company in whom you place trust
• you may prefer to reduce your .com.au Domain Registration fees by moving your domain to our company
• you may already have a domain registered with us, and prefer to keep them altogether.

Whatever your reasons are, the process is relatively simple.

FIRST STAGE

Login to your current Domain Registrar:

• you will need to UNLOCK your domain (for full details please contact your current Domain Registrar to find out how to do this)
• locate the EPP key (a code required to prove your ownership of the Domain); you may need to copy it from the computer screen, or it may be emailed to your registered email name
• both of these steps need to be done BEFORE you commence the Transfer Process.

SECOND STAGE

• go to http://Domains.BuildAWebsiteTonight.com
• click the TRANSFER button in the top menu (Step 1 on the image below)
• click the button:
  
  
  
  
• if you are not already a Member of this website, click the Become a Member/Register Now link
• fill in the Registration form which will create an Account on our Domain website; you need to do this in order to Login and complete your Domain Transfer process
• after registration, follow the steps outlined to start the TRANSFER process
• as soon as you've done that LET US KNOW IMMEDIATELY VIA EMAIL - email us your new Login details - as we will need to login to your new account and 'point' your domain name to your 'live' website.

How long does this take?

Expect the whole process to take 24-48 hours AFTER you've clicked the final approval email.
