How Domain Management Works
Option 1: Full Management Through Me
I register and manage your domain using GoDaddy. You don't need to deal with registrar accounts, renewal notices, or technical settings. I handle everything and bill you annually for the domain cost plus a small admin fee.
Benefits:
- Completely hands-off domain management
- No registrar account to manage
- I monitor renewals and handle them automatically
- One less thing to worry about
- All DNS and email changes handled by me
Option 2: Your Account with My Management
You keep your own GoDaddy account and domain ownership. I manage the technical aspects (DNS, email records, nameservers) on your behalf with access you provide.
Benefits:
- You maintain direct ownership
- Full visibility into your domain account
- I still handle all technical configuration
- You manage renewals directly if preferred
- Best of both worlds: control + expertise
Either way works. Choose whichever approach suits your preference for control versus convenience.
Transparent Pricing
Domain registration and renewal costs vary by extension. I charge the registrar's cost plus a small annual admin fee for management and monitoring.
What you pay:
Domain Cost + Annual Admin Fee
No hidden fees, no markup on domain costs. Just transparent pricing for the service provided.
Transferring Your Existing Domain
Already have a domain registered elsewhere? I can transfer it to my management with minimal disruption.
The transfer process:
- Unlock your domain at current registrar
- Obtain authorization/EPP code
- Initiate transfer (I handle this)
- Verify transfer via email
- DNS settings migrate seamlessly
- Domain transfers to new management
Most transfers complete within 5 to 7 days. Your website and email continue working throughout the transfer with zero downtime.
