3. Configure or transfer
Complete the agreed registration, transfer, nameserver or DNS work and configure supported website and email records.
4. Test and hand over

Domain & DNS FAQs
What does Domain and DNS Support include?
The agreed scope can include registrar and ownership checks, renewals, domain transfers, nameserver changes, website records, MX records, and email-authentication records such as SPF, DKIM and DMARC.
Will CK Website Design own or register the domain in its own name?
No. The domain should remain registered to your business or its authorised owner. We can help with registration, renewal, transfer and configuration while keeping ownership and administrator control with you.
Can you move a domain without taking the website or email offline?
We plan transfers and DNS changes to reduce avoidable disruption, but continuity depends on the registrar, current DNS zone, hosting, email provider and available access.
Can you configure Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace DNS records?
Yes. We can configure supported DNS records for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and other supported mail providers, including MX and agreed authentication records.
How long do DNS changes take to appear?
Some changes appear quickly, while others take longer because resolvers and devices can retain cached records until their time-to-live expires.
Can you recover a domain when access has been lost?
We can help identify the registrar, review available ownership evidence and guide the recovery route. The registrar ultimately controls its verification process.
