If you need to transfer a primary domain to your HostGator account, this can be done at sign up for no cost at all. Just follow a simple process and your domain will be transferred to your account with very little work from you.

Make sure your domain name has been registered for over 60 days, as rules will not allow the transfer of a domain registered for less than that amount of time. You also need to make sure that the email address associated with the domain is valid. Once you request a domain transfer through HostGator, the entire process should take four to five days. HostGator will send you an email that will guide you through the entire process.

Getting a domain transferred to your main hosting account, will allow you to easily build websites and promote them from one convenient location. HostGator makes this process easy. If you need to purchase a new domain, a HostGator coupon is available to help keep the price of a domain as low as possible.
