How do I transfer my .es domain to one.com?

This step-by-step guide explains how to transfer your .es domain to one.com.

Tip: Before you transfer your domain, make a backup of all the content you want to keep, like your website, database and emails. Only your domain is transferred, the content has to be moved manually.
