Domain name registration. ?

expired domain names
SCBrazil asked:

I want to change the company through which my domain is registered. I am currently paying U$35,00, which I am told is quite a high price. My registration expires on 15th of January 2009 and I don’t want to lose the domain as it is a commercial site. Is it possible to register with a different company and if so, how do I do it?
Also, suggestions of cheaper companies to register with would be welcome.
Thanks

    “Transfer” your domain name to a different registrar.
    Do it at least a week before expiration to be safe. Generally only takes 3-5 days but depends on current registrar.

    Select your new registrar. Suggestions: DomainSite.com, DynaDot.com, GoDaddy.com

    All of the suggested registrars have a menu selection to “Transfer” your name to them.
    You pay your new (lower) registration fee and the new registrar initiates the transfer. The administrative contact for your domain name (hopefully that’s you) will receive an email to confirm OK to transfer to the new registrar. You approve and within a few days you get notified that transfer is complete.
    All settings for DNS, etc. are transferred with domain name so there is no interuption in service for your site.

    Easy.
