DigitalOcean is not a domain registrar so you can’t transfer your domain itself to DigitalOcean however you can transfer it to a registrar such as NameCheap, iWantMyName, Gandi, etc. and edit your domain’s nameservers to point to DigitalOcean’s nameservers. <br> <br>Then you can <a href=“https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-set-up-a-host-name-with-digitalocean”>point your domain to your droplet</a>.
