If I transfer my domain to you, will my website and email be affected?
Updated: 2025/05/21
Whether your website and email are affected by the domain transfer depends on where your website and email are hosted:
- Third-Party Hosting: If you use a third-party provider to host your website and email, they should not be affected by the domain name transfer. We do not change your domain's nameservers during the transfer process.
- Registrar Hosting: If your website and email are hosted by your current registrar, they may be affected. Some registrars only provide hosting services if you register your domain with them.
To ensure a smooth transfer with minimal downtime, please consider these options:
- Pre-configure your domain's nameserver/DNS settings before initiating the transfer to Dynadot. (Note: The change will apply to all the domains in the same transfer order.)
- Set your default nameserver/DNS. (Note: Your newly registered domains will be set to the default nameservers too. And please make sure that the option "Apply to transferred domains" is checked.)
- Move to a Third-Party Host.
