If you wish to move away from Design Extreme as your domain registrar, please follow these recommended steps: • Copy your files to your new hosting service. Be sure to edit any configuration files and test your scripts! • Change the DNS of your domain name to your those provided by your new hosting service. • Request your domain to be unlocked and the AUTH-ID code to be sent to you. This process applies to .com and .net domain names, other TLDs require a slightly different process. Changes to the DNS (where the domain name points to) should be rather quick. The change of domain registrar usually takes between 2 and 7 days, but sometimes longer. If you are moving to a new hosting service, it is strongly recommended to prepare your website’s files and change the DNS first.
