Will this work if I don’t own my domain, and I can’t get it?

Yes, we can work around it. If your factory’s shenanigans are making it difficult to get ownership of your domain, we suggest this argument back from dealer owners has worked well:

“I own my building.” That’s the whole argument.

If this commonsense approach with your factory is not getting you anywhere, we suggest litigation.

However, there is another solution that does not involve a protracted fight with your captive manufacture. Google has a clearly defined change of address process that we perform perfectly on your behalf. This works to preserve your findability in search throughout the process and in the end, you'll own your online real estate, your domain, outright.
