How To Transfer a Domain To Wealthy Affiliate
This post, is written, mainly for the benefits if the newer people on the platform, to highlight and show how the platform, can work for you, should you choose this option
I have today, transferred a domain, from my other domain name provider, at NameCheap, to Wealthy Affiliate
There are a couple of reasons for doing so, neither has to do with Price, because when it comes to pricing, both Namecheap and Wealthy Affiliate are very similar in terms of this, but one of the reasons was because, I found Wealthy Affiliate, by accident, but was looking for a good hosting platfrom, after reading
Building On A Budget, the superb book, that used to be available from Magnetic Sponsoring, Now Elite Marketing Pro
The Domain I am transferring is inspired by Mike Dillard and having read Shirley Dawsons post, about MD this morning, it prompted me to transfer the domain here
If you are in a similar postion, and want to transfer the domain, then it is very simple to do
How to Transfer a Domain to Wealthy Affiliate
Go to
Websites on the left hand menu
Select Domains
Then transfer a domain to Wealthy Affiliate
That process will point you in the direction of what you have to do next and that depends on who your present domain name provider is and how difficult they will make it.
Namecheap thankfully are very good and make things simple in terms of the Auth Code you will need.I got that sent by email, which took a few seconds and then transferred it into the box on the domain section.
Next I was asked how I wanted to pay for the domain and if you have been producing training, or have credits in the bank here at Wealthy Affiliate, then you can elect to use those ( its quite nice feeling to do it that way!!) .I have been and chose that option.Then clicked the button that started the transfer
The rest is up to Technical Support, but is fuss free and absolutely no stress attached to it at all
On the subject of transferring domains, but a seperate note again for those who are newer and may not be aware of this option
If you choose to create a domain through Wealthy Affiliate, then you earn credits, which can be accumulated along with the trainings you do (subject to minimum time on this platform) to a cash payout, when you choose to do so
So that is

Hi Dave,
Many thanks for this Post, just one point, '.co.uk' and '.uk' domains cannot be transferred unfortunately. I don't know if this is an issue with other country specific second and top level domains? It's a shame as being in the UK, I have a number of domains that I'd like to move over.

I'm not sure Dave, I have only tried to TRANSFER from 123-reg, the registrations that I've done here are '.com'.
Try it or message Support, they get back to you quite quickly.

Hi, Dave.
I love your saying "Applied Education, is the difference."
Thank you for this post. It is important.
I think that there will be more and more migration to the hosting here in WA because evrything we need is under one roof and well managed by support.

@PMindra.
Why would you want to transfer your domain to Wealthy Affiliate Dave? I would have thought it better to leave the domain wherever it is and just use the DNS so that you are on Wealthy Affiliate servers.
