Domain Transfer - Proper Process So I Don't Nuke Everything
I have asked my website host to begin the process to release my domains so I can transfer them to Namecheap. They sent me a form to fill out that is asking several questions I am unclear on (see attached).
I have four domains I am going to transfer. Two domains just sit there and do nothing. I purchased them to protect our business name. They are a .net and .org. One domain name is a .com that we use for our emails. We also have a new WordPress site that we are going to start using for our main business site. The domain we currently use for our site is a .co.uk domain. We don't have any kind of emails systems set up for that....just the website.
All of these domain currently re-direct to the .co.uk domain.
There are two things I am nervous about....the first is how do we transfer these and not have the website drop off the face of the earth? I am worried that 'the button is pushed' and then when somebody types our domain in their browser, searches for us etc....they get an error.
The other thing is our emails. We will be using Liquid Web for our email hosts. How do I make sure that my emails don't get lost in space?
There has to be some logical and natural progress for all of this and I have yet to crack the code!
Any help to bring me back down to earth would be appreciated. I havent' started the process with Namecheap as of yet because I don't know where to begin.
Many thanks!
