I help manage a website. Its domain is currently registered to Network Solutions. They also provide web forwarding to our website (e.g., example.com
→ example.webhosting.com
). I'm in the process of moving the domain registration to Google Domains, which also does web forwarding.
Problem: So far as I can tell, I can't set up Google Domains forwarding until the registration process is complete. As soon as that happens, Network Solutions will (reasonably) stop web forwarding. I can then presumably set up Google Domains web forwarding; but until I do, our website will be unreachable.
How can I keep our website available through this transition?
FYI:
- If it matters, Network Solutions uses HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently; Google Domains will use HTTP/1.1 302 Moved Temporarily.
- I want to continue using the same website hosting company.
- I want to use the same provider for DNS hosting as for domain registration.
