Domain is parked

    Apologies,

    I was looking to move my domain away ( rriet.me ). I didn’t quite follow the bit about transfers and thought it might just be simpler to delete it and register somewhere else afresh. Now it just says on rriet.me that my domain is parked, and I can’t register it elsewhere. Can this be fixed? If so, how does the transfer process work?

    Thanks,
    Harriet

    Deleting your domain doesn’t immediately release it for repurchase. Instead you canceled the domain name, meaning you no longer own it.

    Please let us know which of these options works best for you:

    Wait: You can wait about five days from cancellation for the domain to be released. So long as no one else buys it before you do, you can purchase it again with another provider.

    Repurchase the Domain: We can send an invoice and restore the domain. You’ll be able to point it to a new host as soon as it’s restored, then transfer the registration after 60 days.

    Repurchase a Plan: To host your site here after all, buy a plan, skip the domain option, then update us here.

    Regarding the domain transfer process, you can read more about this here:

    Let us know how you’d like to proceed! Thanks.
