How can I use your E-mail Services, Web Forwarding or One-Page Mini-Site with domains registered at another registrar?

There are two ways to do that. The first way is to transfer your domain registration to NameSecure. But, this isn't always made easy to do by your current, losing registrar. So, we've developed DNS Service Manager - a service that lets you manage the zone file here at NameSecure, which gives you access to our world-class Forwarding, Mini-Site and E-mail services (additional fees may apply).
