  Hello, I have a domain I just registered for 10 years (!) on godaddy. I’d like to set up a very simple single page landing page for bloomgardenflowers.xyz

  What is the cheapest way of doing this? If I transfer from godaddy do I lose the payments I’ve already made to them for the incoming years?

  Hi there, you’re welcome to map the domain here, or transfer it:

  If you transfer the domain, it’ll just add one more year to the ten.

  Any hosting you’ve bought with GoDaddy would not be transferred over, though, so if you have that you may want to decide whether you want our managed services, or whether you prefer to install and maintain your own copy of the software there. Here’s the difference:

  Basically our services include hosting with SSL, as well as maintenance, security, and direct WordPress support for your WordPress site. Or you can take care of those on your own or through other providers. Does that help? If so you can find our pricing here:
