How to Transfer a Domain from Network Solutions to MyDomain

Posted on September 11th, 2008 under How To's

This tutorial walks through the process of transferring a domain name from Network Solutions to MyDomain.

  1. Login to Network Solutions

    Step 1

    Once logged in, click Domains then Manage Domain Names


  2. Edit Domain Details

    Step 1

    Under Domain Details for your domain, near the right side, click “Turn Off or Request Authorization Code


  3. Edit Domain Protect

    Step 1

    Check BOTH “Leave Domain Protect off” and “Request Authorization Code”, then SAVE near the bottom right corner.


  4. Authorization Code Emailed

    Step 1

    Network Solutions will email the authorization code to the email address of the primary account holder.


  5. Login to MyDomain.com

    Step 1

    Create a MyDomain.com account if you haven’t already and login. Then click “Transfer Your Domains To Us” near the bottom of the home tab.


  6. Check Transfer Ability

    Step 1

    Type the domain name in the text box and click “Check”. This checks to make sure the domain is not protected and is eligible for transfer.


  7. Domain Transfer

    Step 1

    If the domain is eligible for transfer you can add it to your cart and proceed to chekout. The transfer is typically not immediate, so check your MyDomain account for status. DNS info should remain in tact, but again its a good idea to check back.


As a comparison, a 5 year renewal through Network Solutions is $99.95. Through MyDomain, a 5 year renewal is $43.79.
