A domain will expire in very tight time (created in Des 25 2008 and will expire in Des 25 2010). The day when I want to renew is Des 24 2010. Very tight time for renew domain.
A rule that I ever read about renew domain is : the latest time for renew is 12 days before it’s expired time.
I love to experiment and I decide to try for renew the domain with godaddy. That also mean must I transfer the domain to godaddy too.
Let start
I login to godaddy, pick domain name that I want to transfer and pay the fee. Godaddy send me email. Waiting for approval.
The email told me that they detect the email address for approval is : [email protected]
That email is wrong. I also realized that I must unlock whois protection on current domain side.
Current domain use DIRECTI INTERNET SOLUTIONS and I forgot the password.
Click Forgot Password to retrieve the password.
Check my inbox and see login information data.
Login to domain panel and click “list all orders”
Click on domain name.
Current status of domain.
- Privacy Protection : enabled
- Theft Protection : enabled
Disable Privacy Protection
Click Disable button to disable privacy protection.
For disable theft protection, use the same step for disable privacy protection.
Refresh domain status and see those two things (privacy protection and theft protection in disabled mode)
On godaddy side see transfer progress page and choose “reinitiate”
Click OK to reinitiate domain transfer for the selected domain.
Watch carefully on admin email: the address should point to right email not to [email protected].
At this stage getting EPP key aka domain secret is next step for continue domain transfer.
Summary :
For smooth domain transfer make sure to disable privacy protection and theft protection.
