2. If I already have a domain, can I transfer it from my current host and use you to host it?
Yes, simply contact our sales department for our DNS Settings that you'll need to provide your current host with. If you want to register your domain through our Domain Name Registration services, this is an entirely different process. First you need to make sure your domain is UNLOCKED with your current host. This can only take place if your domain is unlocked. For more information on this matter, please contact our sales department.

14. If I transfer my domain, do you pay the registration fees?
There is no registration fee for domains that are already registered, unless the registration is up, in which case you will be responsible for paying all registrar fees. IDWEBHOSTING only pays for registration fees on certain domain extensions purchased through IDWEB-HOSTING. However, if your domain is about to expire, we recommend switching to our registrar as we offer some of the lowest registrar prices around. ALTHOUGH you will still be required to pay for all domain registrar fees.
