Short version first. Once a domain is registered, its name is fixed, down to the last letter and the extension after the dot. The workaround everyone ends up using is a second registration: you move your website and email onto the new domain, then a redirect on the current one catches anybody still typing the address they already know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Which makes “can I change my domain name<\/strong>” a bit of a trick question. Technically, no. In practice, businesses do it all the time, and the hard parts turn up in places like email, budget and search traffic. There’s also a five-day window where a typo can sometimes be reversed, so if that’s why you’re here, skip to the typo section.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
