Sorry posted back to myself:
To be safe, you might think about getting a domain very similar to your current domain like spacejunky2000.org instead of spacejunkie2000.net set it up with whatever provider you prefer and then back up your current website then copy everything over to your new site to make sure that it works. The piddly amounts that you will spend on the new hosting plan probably pale in comparison to what you might have paid someone to design your site.
good point.
