Ask Slashdot: Smartest Way To Transfer an Old Domain/Site?
An anonymous reader writes "Back in early 95 I registered a domain name and built a website for a hobby of mine. Over time the website (and domain) name have built a small but steady stream of traffic but my interest in the hobby is essentially gone and I've not been a visitor to my own site in well over two years. I'd like to sell the site/domain to a long time member who has expressed interest in taking over and trying to grow the site, however I use the domain for my own personal email including banking, health insurance, etc. How have fellow readers gone about parting ways from a domain that they've used for an email address?" More generally, what terms would you like to include (or have you included) in a domain transfer? Old horror stories could help prevent new horror stories.
Disclaimer: I have no experience in this situation this is just my take on this so take with lots of salt (well.. try and keep it under 1500ml if you are watching your sodium.. )
Metric fail, 1500mL is 1.5 Liters and almost certainly toxic if only as a descicant: http://www.google.co.nz/#sclient=psy-ab&hl=en&site=&q=1500mL+in+liters&pbx=1&oq=1500mL+in+liters
