Transferring a domain name away from Webs means moving the registration of your domain name from Webs to a new domain registrar. In order to transfer your domain name it needs to be greater than 60 days old, and it is a good idea to initiate the transfer before the domain name is up for renewal.
A domain name transfer can take anywhere from 2 days to 2 weeks, and if your domain name is up for renewal or recently expired you run the risk of complicating the transfer and possibly losing your domain in the process.
Before you initiate the transfer of your domain name make sure that the Registrant Email Address is up to date. This is where your transfer code will be emailed.
you can host your web site through another provider without transferring the domain registration?
This is the easiest and fastest way to move your web site. Your domain registration will remain with Webs and any changes or renewals for the domain name will be handled through your Webs.com account. Contact your new host and ask them for their nameservers. You can change these yourself through the Domains section of your account.
