You can save days off your domain registration transfer if you know this one little trick! You can save days off your domain registration transfer if you know this one little trick! After preparing my domains for transfer, and initiating the transfer at my new domain registrar, I waited 4 days for the transfer to be approved. It wasn’t happening. And I only had one more day before my new domain registrar, Google Domains, would stop the process.

How to prepare to transfer a domain name to a new registrar - What you need to know about your new registrar and your old registrar before you transfer your domain name to a new domain registrar.If your domain is registered with your host, you need to transfer your domain name to another registrar.
