Where to best register a domain? - DevHunters.com l Webmaster Forum - Web Advertising - Web Design

webKitten · 11-20-2007, 06:44 PM

Hi,

My question is probably not so difficult to answer by most of you here Web Masters! :) Ok!
Can you please tell me where it is best to register my domains?
Differences and benefits of different registrars, any risks?
The best way to do it budget wise. :)
Thank you very much!

I'd say GoDaddy. Many people recommend them, but I don't know why haha.

I guess their interface is easy to use or something?? People will chime in here very soon!

Yes their service is too cheap although you should be careful since with a quick look i saw that they say price is only for the first year (just to enter the game as a customer). Since you have reg there names.. is their interface and their functions ok?

i use godaddy.com and dynadot.com.

I suggest dynadot

stay away from 1and1.com... their prices are cheap but i have heard awfull things about their services and that is too hard to transfer names from their company to another company!

Thank you guys!
I have looked around and see how different the prices can be. I also found out most of the time it's "second hand" registrar.
Which huge companies do you know that do the registrations? :rolleyes:

rashas8 · 11-22-2007, 08:45 AM

try to register on name.com :)

mountlaurel · 11-22-2007, 08:53 AM

yes name.com they are cheap though very good service...

mntor · 11-22-2007, 09:22 AM

I would recommend Namecheap.com and Domainsite.com. Namecheap gives a lot of freebies for <$9.

puffin · 11-22-2007, 09:37 AM

There are certern things you have to think first,

Payment methods - what u will use ? credit card ? Paypal ? forum currency ?

you will need to transfer domain to other registrars or not

finally the price.

Hunter1 · 11-22-2007, 09:44 AM

Don't forget!! www.yocheap.com which is our GoDaddy Re-Seller site is just 6.95 for .coms and 6.99 for transfers!!

hehe!!

webKitten · 11-22-2007, 10:02 PM

HMMMM ok!
I'll keep these in mind

weblord · 11-29-2007, 02:30 AM

my advise is to go with the domain industry leaders like godaddy.com, enom.com, namecheap.com, moniker.com and scatter it as much as possible so if anything happens to one account you have another one to sell. sorry for the late reply and for bumping an old thread.

hydroburn · 11-29-2007, 05:31 PM

i've registered with godaddy, domainrightnow, namecheap, idotz ...

i feel that GD is good .. but namecheap offers free whois privacy .. :)

john · 12-06-2007, 10:53 AM

godaddy also offers whois privacy if you register i think more than 5 domains together. although i don't think that is very important to have privacy if there is not a certain reason. I personally think that a website without privacy is a more trustworthy. Are you a criminal? why to hide your info? Also the free goodies that offer the most domain registrants are garbage and probably you will never use them. You can find free better ones. the important think for me is to be a legit registar, and to have the ability to manage easily your domains and transfer them

Sparkydude31809 · 12-06-2007, 03:39 PM

Godaddy or Namecheap ;)

J0ker · 12-06-2007, 04:49 PM

We prabably sound like a broken record here, but the reality of domain registrars is that all the small companies offering extremely cheap domains, are not what you want to go with. I have personal experience with these companies, that have many tricks like auto renewals at outrageous prices and difficulty in transferring the domain. GoDaddy is the way to go in consistently good priced domains and the best reliability

rfid786 · 12-09-2007, 05:18 AM

i think E-Nom and Reseller clubs are batter and cheapers also

Simonas · 12-09-2007, 06:21 AM

Thanks for info guys i am straiting registering and developing domens and this threat is very useful for me :)

For me I love to register domains at namecheap. Their site is mostly ad free and I like their service and support.
