Best Domain Registrars?

Discussion in 'Domain Names' started by aceriker, Nov 8, 2009.

    I currently use the following domain registrars but want to know if there are others that are as cheap and just as good:

    1. Namecheap (my personal favourite)
    2. Godaddy (hate them, but are cheap with coupon code)
    3. Name.com
    4. Dotster.com (a little on the expensive side)
    5. MyDomain.com

    I'm looking for ICANN approved alternatives who accept PayPal and who will also offer free whois guards, got any suggestions?!

    I'll never touch enom again. When the *.info's came out, they went through and registered all of their client domains as *.info's and made us buy it from them, usually at a markup.

    First reference that came up. Kind of busy today: http://www.recycled-traffic.com/news.jsp?newsid=43

    Great, thanks for the suggestions, I just purchased a load of domains through whiz.in and am looking at moniker.com now.

    Any other domain registrars that are:

    - Cheap
    - Accept paypal
    - Have free whois privacy

    lol really?

    updated: looks like it's long time ago, anyway i would still use godaddy or name.com since they are reliable and the the price is reasonable.

    I'm a Moniker and Enom user. Pretty satisfied with both. GoDaddy is a huge no no.

    Godaddy pisses me off with how slow their site is & how long it takes to make any changes. I'm slowly moving all my names out of there....never again SlowDaddy! :mad:
