Once you agree to everything, please respond back to this ticket and we will proceed.
If you have any other questions, please contact us back at your earliest convenience.

大致是意思是让用户点击进入提供链接页面，进入页面后内容如下：
1.The rename Process normally takes from 20 minutes to 5 hours, depending on the size of the account.
2.The domain you are changing to must be associated with the account first.
3.The current main domain can never become the main domain again.
4.The current account’s username, password, files, databases and e-mails will remain unchanged.
5.The new primary domain will point to the public_html directory itself, the same way the main domain does currently.
6.The website files may need to be moved into the public_html directory and out of the public_html directory, to correspond with the new primary domain and assignment of the old primary domain to a subfolder.
Please note that this will be your responsibility to do, and may cause some site files, scripts or other applications to break, requiring modification to work with the new site location.
7.Custom DNS entries will be deleted for both domains involved in this change and will need to be recreated after the rename is complete.
Note: This most often will only take a few minutes, but could take up to a few hours.
8.Although renaming an account should not move or delete any files on the account, we do recommend creating/downloading a backup of all files and databases prior to requesting the rename. Please Click Here for information about creating and downloading backups.
9.The new primary domain must be registered to you. If needed, you may register new domains for $13.99 each, per year, via the Domain Manager in the cPanel.

这是更换主域名前需要了解的9条内容，同意并完成条款提出的问题，然后回复官方说更换主域名，官方收到回复后就会进行更换主域名的操作。

注意由上面的信息可以看出，更换主域名时账户是暂时不能登录的，一般需要20分钟到5个小时左右的时间；原来的主域名一旦被更换，以后就不能再作为主域名使用了；新的主域名需要先绑定到账户中后才能更换为主域名，这几点都是比较重要，需要了解清楚。

HostMonster主机和其他大多数主机商一样都可以更换主域名的，只要用户想换主域名随时都可以联系HostMonster官方进行更换，但是要更换主域名，用户就得先了解一下官方对更换主域名的一些政策。

第一，域名在注册72小时内，如果你想更换你注册的免费主域名，那么是不需要收费的，可以免费更换重新注册一个域名；但是超过了72小时，你想重新注册他们的域名来更换主域名，那么是需要收域名注册费的，域名注册费是13.99美元，比较贵，所以注册前最好想好自己要使用的域名。

其次，用户更换的主域名必须是顶级域名，也就常说的一级域名，不过像带www的二级域名除外，它是一种特殊的二级域名，所以可以作为主域名绑定在主机上，其他的都不行。

当然，也可以不使用他们的域名，如果你有自己的域名，那么更换域名也是不需要收费的，只要联系他们官方请求更换主域名，然后按照他们的要求做就可以了，还是比较方便的。
