​Should You Transfer Your Domain Name?

​Publishing content online may often begin with looking at your own property – your own website.

​And what comes with that is your own address – the triple w – dot and so on…dot com.

​That’s right. It’s like having your own home or property (in an ideal address) in which everything else resides.

There might be some reasons why you need to move your domain name (to a new home) - or aptly known as domain transfer.

If you are at the point of organizing your digital stuff and would like to put some or all of your owned domain names under one place for easy account management, you may start to consider the idea. 

But then, you might have some hesitation. And ask yourself, "Does it really make sense at this point?".

What – with your busy schedule and not to mention, the many tasks under that tight schedule – would you still bother to do the transfer?

This article from Namecheap: “Top Myths About Transferring Domain Names” is an interesting read.   

Open-source platforms for website publishing with content management systems (CMS), such as Joomla and Drupal have been declining in the last while -in terms of usage and market share.

Joomla's usage stands at 2.2% with a market share of 3.6%.

Drupal's usage is at 1.5% and has market share of 2.5%.

According to the post: “Why WordPress Will Soon Power 50% of All Websites” at Namecheap’s blog, WordPress’ market share continues to reach significant gains.

“As it stands today, WordPress powers 39.1% of all websites. According to the latest figures by W3Techs, it’s growing by 2.47% per year on average — with no signs of slowing down. Continuing at this rate, there’s every chance it will surpass 50% market share by the end of 2025.” – Namecheap.

Looking at the CMS market share (content management system), WordPress stands at 63.8%.
