Domains In Trouble - The Registerfly Saga

I hope that none of you guys have domains registered with Registerfly.

I have most of my domains registered with Registerfly. Not a wise move unfortunately. I have had some issues with their website and their customer service. The worst part is that I had made bulk purchases of some domains before and some of them were not available which means that I still have some money with them! ( those .info domains were real cheap, a steal in fact for $0.60 each )

Here’s what happened ( this is old news ) :

Scary? You bet! Imagine losing your domains especially those important ones which you have taken the trouble to build up!
I am now in the midst of transferring the important domains out.

And here’s a registrar taking advantage of this situation, smart move, Godaddy!

( ps. so if you have any registerfly domains, you should make use of this opportunity to transfer at a cheaper price!)

Another good registrar that I am using is namecheap.com ( so far no issue with them ). Now I am in the midst of transferring some of my websites over… keeping my fingers cross!

How do you transfer your domain? ( I can hear some of you ask… )
Step 1. Decide which registrar you want the domain to be transferred to.
