  Hi there!

  You can find information for transferring your domain out to a different registrar here.

  Another option that you have, is to keep your domain over at WordPress.com, and to add SquareSpace’s name servers to your DNS setting. If you’d like more information about how this works, this article is handy.

  Let me know if you have any other questions!

  The easiest option would probably be to add SquareSpace’s name servers to your current domain here.

  Let me know if you need any help figuring out how to do that!

  I looked at the first option and it says you can only transfer the domain within 60 days of registering. Its more than a year since I regisered…
