What's the difference between Method 2 and Method 3?

When you use Method 2, your new domain is hosted at uCoz servers. If you use Method 3 - you just change the domain name (to be more precise you just get one more name for your site because it will be accessible by both names - the new one and the old one) but your domain remains hosted at another registrar's servers. So the difference is in the place where your new domain is hosted - either at uCoz or not.

The IP address of Server 57 has been changed to prevent access issues. Please note that the new IP address for Server 57 is 193.109.247.157

Those users, whose websites are located on the mentioned server and whose domain names are attached by Method 3, should change the A-Record in their domain control panel.

Your website will then be available under the attached domain name once the domain data has successfully updated.
