How To Move Your Domain To CWCS

In todays guide we look at how to move your domain to CWCS. There are several different kinds of domain name (from the global domains like .com and .net to the localised country domains like .co.uk and .ie).

Now you may wish to move your domain completely to CWCS so we can manage the domain and web hosting for you or you may wish to just point the domain name to our servers whils retaining the domain management with your existing provider.

UK Domains (.co.uk, .org.uk, .ltd.uk, .plc.uk, me.uk)

To transfer a UK domain to your account with CWCS, ask the current host of the domain to change the IPSTAG to CWCS. Then inform CWCS when they have made the chang. CWCS does not always get notified when domains are moved onto our IPS Tag by nominet (the .uk domain governing body). Once changed, we send a change request to Nominet asking them to change the name servers to the ones relevant to your managed hosting account. Once the transfer is complete, allow 12-24 hours for the domain to propogate and be live on the new CWCS hosted webspace.

Note: IPSTAG: CWCS

Top Level Domains (.com, .org, .net, .biz, .info)

To transfer Top Level Domains to your professional hosting account, please ask your current host to change the name servers to unless otherwise stated in your welcome e-mail:

ns.supremeservers.co.uk 193.200.80.3
ns2.supremeservers.co.uk 91.192.193.254

This however will only point the domain to our servers and not CWCS full control to manage and renew the domain. If you wish for this to be the case then simply order a registrar transfer from your billing system page.

Non-UK and Top Level domains

To transfer non-UK and Top Level Domains, please ask the current host of the domain to change the name servers to unless otherwise stated in your welcome
e-mail:
ns.supremeservers.co.uk 193.200.80.3
ns2.supremeservers.co.uk 91.192.193.254

Please note we do not manage or renew these domains on your behalf as we currently don't have the agreements with their registrars.
