Changing my Website Domain

[Islandsoul]

Hello folks,

A while back I bought my domain name through Namecheep thinking that I could create my website from there. Realizing Namecheep was just for creating website domains, I truned to Go Daddy to create my website. I want to be able to switch my domain name to the one I purchased through Namecheep and transfer it to my website. Is it possible for me to transfer the domain name I bought through Namecheep to my current website or would I need to create an entirely new website?

@Islandsoul  Sure, basically you'll want to start by going to namecheap and unlocking your domain and getting the authorization/EPP code from them. Then go to Godaddy's transfer page here: https://www.godaddy.com/domains/domain-transfer and enter in the information.

For your website you can try Website builder here: https://www.godaddy.com/websites/website-builder
