Domain Transfer UK - Transferring to 1st Choice Web Host

Many of our clients have already registered a domain name either separately or via a previous host. If this is the case then this information will assist you in transferring your domain name to us. The transfer process depends on the registrar with whom you registered your domain name.
 
If you registered a US Top Level Domain or a Non UK domain (.com, .net, .it or .ca) you need to contact your registrar company to either login and change your DNS (domain name server) information, which indicates where your web site is hosted or to unlock it and authorize them to accept a transfer release

If you have a UK domain (.co.uk or .org.uk) then you will need to ask your current registrar/host to change the IPS TAG to FASTHOSTS (we are registered with them via UKREG and our fasthosts Id is dachambers). the IPSTAG the management tag used by UK domain registrars.

In that section, please update your nameserver information to the following:

For .com, .net, .info, .biz and other TLDs please use this information;

Alternatively if you would like antonymous name servers then this can be arranged at no extra cost.

Many Domain Name Registrars request that you login to their systems, using the login and password they assigned you, and transfer the domain name yourself. Once you login, you will come across a link that allows you to change your nameserver information which is normally straight forward
 
While waiting for your existing domain name to transfer and propegate to the new nameservers, we recommend maintaining your site at your current host to avoid down time

During this time, we will provide you with a temporary URL that you can use

Don't forget if you do have any problems then let us know
