Domain Transfer from Onamae.com to Cloudflare Registrar

I transferred my domain from Onamae.com to Cloudflare Registrar.

Cloudflare | クラウドフレア

Background: Reducing Domain Renewal Costs

I transferred the domain because Cloudflare Registrar has lower domain renewal fees than Onamae.com.

Preparation: Changing DNS Servers from Onamae.com to Cloudflare

To avoid troublesome recovery issues when problems occur, I changed only the DNS servers in advance rather than changing DNS servers at the same time as the domain transfer.
