  Hello, I’m interested in transferring a domain I own. When I initiate the transfer, will my old site be immediately taken down? I want to build my new site while keeping my old one online, then switching. Is this possible with a domain transfer? Thank you!

  Hi,

  Sure thing, you can work on your site using the free .wordpress.com subdomain and only map or transfer your custom domain once you’re ready.
