Transferring a Turbify(Yahoo) domain to Strikingly

If you have a domain with Turbify, you can transfer it to Strikingly by following this guide. 

 

Note: Before Verizon Small Business Essentials became Turbify in 2022, it rebranded itself as Aabaco from December 2015 to January 2018. Aabaco was aquired by Yahoo in January 2018. Verizon bought Yahoo in 2021. If you registered a domain with Aabaco or Yahoo during these time periods, you can use this guide to connect your domain.
