I am thinking about name.com
Is there anyone who had registered domain with name.com ?

I have tried name.com and they seem quite good. Namecheap have also been ok and I haven't used the others besides Register.com years ago but their prices are a bit high there. You might like to consider Dotster.com and domains are $8 with coupon "bargaincat" or transfers are just $6.95 + Icann fee. Moniker are also pretty good and prices are around the $8 mark with some promotions offered now & then. Good luck!

I am just reading Reviews about name.com
http://www.namepros.com/domain-registrar-reviews/86438-name.html
Do they provide
CNAME change record ?
MX change record ?
NS change record?
FOR FREE OF COST ?

Namecheap gets my vote.
I have been using namecheap for about 3+ years and have never had any problems. They also have a security feature on your account. If someone tries to guess your password, after 3 or 4 failed log in attempts, your account is locked for 24 hours. One time I locked myself out and had to email support. And then I had to provide all kinds of information to prove who I was just so they would unlock my account.

enom too expensive?
then register a domain on namecheap and look at the whois! you'll see enom as registrar ;)
ENOM is one of the domain reseller sellers which does not compete with it's resellers.. That's why their prices are so expensive, you can register a domain at about $10 on an enom reseller,
I would choose none of the options in your list..
GoDaddy is the best ;)

But on website of enom, I cannot register a single domain
We have to purchase Resellers Package

Not true anymore, namecheap.com is now an ICANN accredited registrar. It's been this way for a while now. You might have seen an old registration.
Name.com gets my vote. +1

go with moniker if you know what you are doing with your domain is somewhat sketcy. :) i.e trademark domains.
They are gangster when it comes to releasing domains, youve gotta love them.

You might have seen an old registration.Despite the misleading ICANN logo on their front page Namecheap still registers their names thru Enom - they don't have their own backend registration systems working yet.

Yeah you are right, I just contacted support and they told me ENOM charges them $200 to re-activate a domain name when it's under redemption period which clearly shows they are just a reseller.
Liars, NAMECHEAP SUCKS.
GO NAME.com

No problem Troy, I know name.com is working on an API reseller program like godaddy because it was discussed alot during the past three months. But as far as implementing the plan, I am not sure when they will do so.
I have never used their sub-account, to be honest.

You can get resellership from resellerclub, but there you have to pay big amount first for initial payment.
I am also looking for a company which provide domains for a low fees and low initial payments.

They used to provide FREE DOMAIN RESELLING account.

Thanks my all friends,
I have registered my domain with name.com
I love it, I used a coupon so I got .com TLD domain for $7.95.
Thats great, their domain activation service is very fast compared to others (Best than ENOM)

a friend of mine had a domain autounleashed[dot]com at namecheap.com and they stole it or have a flow in their system..

#1 namecheap.com (ask for their high user discount code if you hold more than 50 names with them)
In 5 years I have never had a problem with these guys and I often use them.
#2 Moniker.com
#3 Dynadot.com
#4 name.com
These are my top 4 for customer service, ease of use, value etc.
Godaddy are ok - but their huge amount of cross selling BS annoys the hell out of me and on a slow connection I often find their site super slow and glitch

Godday and namecheap, they are the best

I will be joining the list if everything goes well. My main focus is will be domain names, developing domains and domain parking.
