  Hi, I want to transfer my domain name from my previous host but there is something called registrar transfer lock. Do I need to cancel it with them and then use my name on this site. I don’t know where to start with this, it will be helpful if you can explain in simple terminology please:) the easiest way? do I need to upgrade on this site first or get my code for my domain and then use it to upgrade here? thanks

  Hi there!

  Do not cancel the domain if you want to keep using it.

  You’ll want to follow the steps here to transfer it to your WordPress.com site:
