transfer email and domain from godaddy

[kaseyb111]

Currently have a domain and also basic email hosting with godaddy. Want to transfer it all to another provider which I already have a package with.  I'm confused if there will be any downtime with the email itself during the transfer?

@kaseyb111 You can follow these instructions on how to transfer the domain: https://www.godaddy.com/help/transfer-domain-to-another-registrar-3560

In terms of the site downtime, there will be some. You'll need to transfer all of your site files to your new host and you'll need to update the nameservers, it typically takes 24-48 hours for nameservers to fully resolve. Have everything setup at your new host before changing the nameservers so that any incoming emails will be received by either your godaddy hosting package or your new host.
