: Transferring domains to save money I have about 35 domains and I was wondering, does it hurt in anyway to keep transferring between name cheap and godaddy year after year to save some cash?

@Merenda212

The cash you save will not be worth your time managing the transfers.

Nothing else need really come into it. Domains are so cheap nowadays, you may as well have a favourite registrar and keep all your domains together to make it easy to manage. And then spend the time you would have spent on transferring them... on something that will make you some money instead! (such as working on things that will optimise your SEO, working on increasing ad income, etc)

If you did want to transfer back and forth anyway, it's unlikely it will affect your SEO. Where a domain is registered doesn't have any bearing on the content of the site, which is much more important. However, since it's hard to know for sure and there's very little benefit in transferring back and forth, I'd recommend not doing it.

Do you have you have private whois records? If the records are not private and you just change your domain registrar I don't think there will be any consequences but it is really hard to say as I haven't actually tested it on a larger scale and repeated the process. I have just moved domain from one registrar to another and never noticed any issues.
