Getting My domain name from yahoo?

expired domain names
BereaGirl asked:

I got a domain name and hosting from yahoo. I cancelled the hosting. I heard from several ppl it’s next to impossible to get your domain name transferred from yahoo. I don’t have the time to waste a lot of time trying to get what I paid for out of yahoo’s clutches. The domain is set to expire next month anyway. How can I get it to where I have all my other domains? I don’t want someone else to get it. Can I renew it on the same day it expires? What’s the easiest way I can get it back?

    If you wait til the last minute you run the risk of someone snatching up the domain. Sometimes there are advertisement agencies that will take your domain if you wait too long, and especially if you had a good deal of traffic. I wouldn’t imagine it’s in immediate danger if you choose to lease the domain again from another source. However, you probably will have just as much luck transferring it through yahoo. You really won’t know until you try. I would transfer it normally through Yahoo, I don’t see why it would be a problem.

    Also, if you need hosting I provide it for pretty cheap

    Most good domain registrars have a transfer wizard that will walk you through this. I use Temecula Valley Domains
