    You transfer the domain and send all your files to the buyer.

    I think he asks for some details - how domain names are being transfered, what to do is someone sends him a message "Hey, I want to buy your domain. Sending you the money through PayPal. Now give me the domain pls.".

    For one, be careful about accepting payment via PayPal.
    Only use PayPal for amounts you can afford to lose.
    If you are unsure of the other parties reputation, opt for a safer
    means of payment such as Escrow(for larger amounts).

    If you are selling the domain name...all will depend on where it is
    registered. Most registrars facilitate a "free domain push"...some do not.
    Hopefully your domain name is registered at a registrar where you can push.

    So you ask the buyer to provide you with their details.
    This also varies from registrar to registrar...(e-mail address,account number,transfer code, etc).
    You will need the information to initiate the domain transfer or to push the domain into the clients account.

    The the website; You can send the client zipped files, unless you have agreed
    upon providing website transfer, in which case you can use an FTP service.
    There are some free ones such as Filezilla

    Hi and thanks for the responds. I was on a vacation and I couldn't connect to the internet, thats why I didn't respond back. If I understand, thats what I need to do to transfer my website and the domain name to my costumer:
    1) Sent him the website files in zip form
    2)Contact him to give me his personal information that I need (e-mail address,account number,transfer code...)
    3)Contact my hosting company to push the domain (I use windriverdigital and they have free website transfer option).

    Is that right??? Please correct me if I make something wrong. Thanks
