Yahoo.com Small Business 总会推出一些活动,域名打折一般或更低,这几天也正在搞活动每个$2.99美元,合24元人民币一年,价格的确是非常低,非常诱人。本人也正是在年初Yahoo域名搞活动时注册了几个,现在很多人担心注册了将来需要的时候是不是能顺利转回来?
为了验证这一点,这几天专门试着将年初注册的Chinawebmasterworld.com转回国内试一下,现在表明,可以顺利转回。
首先给Yahoo写了一封信说明需要转回域名,几个小时内收到了Yahoo的回复,并给出了需要做的详细步骤,下面是Yahoo的回信:
Hello Jesse,Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Domains. I hope this email will help to resolve your question.As I understand, after reading your query that,you need the authorization code for your domain name.
An authorization code is a key code only applicable for .us, .biz, .info and just recently .org domain names.
If you are transferring your domain registration to another registrar (away from Yahoo!) and your new registrar asks for an authorization code, Yahoo! cannot provide this code to you. In order to retrieve your code, we will need to release your domain name to our partner registrar, Melbourne IT. Please do the following:
1. To prevent future billing, please cancel your Domains service. Please note, that moving your domain registration away from Yahoo! does not automatically cancel your account.
Please Note – Update the Administrative contact email address listed on the “WHOIS” Database before you cancel the account as this is address on which you will receive your Registry Key. You can make this change through your Domains Control Panel by clicking on “Registration Info.”
2. For verification purposes, please reply with the following information:
* Yahoo! ID
* Domain Name
* Zip Code, Alternate email address, or Date of Birth (provide only one)
* Last 8 digits of the credit card used to bill your account
* Credit Card TypeOnce we verify you are the owner, we will proceed with the release of the domain name.
Once released you can contact Melbourne IT to retrieve this code at:
I look forward to your reply.

Phoebe

从上面给出的步骤可以看出,首先你要在自己的Yahoo帐户里边选择取消该项域名的服务,然后把上面要求确认所有者身份的ID,信用卡末几位号码等回复上面的邮件给Yahoo.
这样做完后,大概又过几个小时收到了Yahoo的回复:
Hello Jesse,Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Domains.We have released chinawebmasterworld.com from our reseller list. You will be receiving an email from Melbourne IT soon with your new registry key.
Please do not hesitate to reply if you need further assistance.

用上面 Melbourne IT 提供的域名管理密码登录 Melbourne IT 的网站就可以进行操作了,如果发现域名状态是锁定,解锁然后就可顺利转到你想转入的任何注册商那里了。
Yahoo的域名转移注册商之所以稍微复杂一点就是Yahoo本身不是直接的授权域名注册机构,它是澳大利亚 Melbourne IT 的代理商、合作伙伴,这样转移域名注册商时,就需要先取消在Yahoo的管理,Yahoo先将你的域名管理权转移到 Melbourne IT, 然后再从真正的注册机构 Melbourne IT 转移域名。
另外,还有人说Yahoo域名价格低,但注册后信用卡扣款时没有按照打折后的价格扣,而是按照原价格$9.95来扣,这一点也是不对的,本人在几次Yahoo搞活动时注册了多个域名,扣款都是按照打折后的价格扣的,只是有一点在注册后Yahoo发给你的域名注册通知邮件上写的是原价格,估计是自动邮件通知内容没有修改,但实际扣款金额是按照打折后的价格扣除的,因此这一点也是没必要担心的。
