Why do I have to
transfer my domain, and what does it mean?
Firstly, a basic explanation
of the domain name system (this isn't entirely accurate but for all intents and
purposes it will help you're understanding of what is happening). What happens
when you type in an address into your browser is essentially the Internic
domain database is checked to find the name servers for that domain. Once your
browser knows the name servers is contacts them and wants to know the specific
address of the computer that your website is located on. Once it has that, it
then goes to that computer and retrieves your site. When you sign up with a
hosting provider you have the Internic domain database changed to that it
points to your new hosting providers name servers. Your hosting provider will
setup their name servers to accept your domain and point it to the right
computer (the one that will have your website actually on it).
There are a lot of domain registrars around. Domain registrars
are the companies who actually modify the domain database for
you, you pay them for rights to a domain, and they update the
domain database when you tell them where you want it to point.
As there are now lots of domain registrars and more popping
up all the time, it is impossible for us to list explicit instructions
on changing the name servers associated with your domain for
all of them. The job of transferring your domain is essentially
up to you, as we don't actually have any power to transfer the
domain, for authorisation reasons only the owner and certain
contacts can change details, however, we are willing to give
you help when you have specific questions. If you need help,
send your specific question to your representative and they
will try to help you out. A handy tool is called 'whois'. This
checks every domain registered and tells you what it's name
servers are currently set to. Click here to visit the whois
for most domains: http://domain.weboneplus.com
Please also remember that
after you've changed it, it can take up to 2-3 days to propogate throughout the
world, meaning, the change may not be visible for up to 2 days (it could be
longer if you are behind a firewall or proxy).
