Hi, this is all very confusing for me. I'm looking at buying a domain from a seller here which is currently over at GoDaddy.com. The thing is I'm looking at transfering it to NameCheap.com. Do I just open an account at Namecheap and wait for the transfer or do I need to open an account at GoDaddy too?

How much will it cost me to do the transfer? After the transfer will I need to pay Namecheap to hold on to the domain for me as well? Many thanks.

you just open a account at namecheap.

you give the seller your namecheap inlogname.

and the seller will push the domain in to your account.

The usual process would be:

- open an account at the registrar of the seller
- the seller push the domain to you
- you open an account at your desired registrar and request transfer there

Don't let the seller transfer the domain to avoid problems
