The last thing I knew about registering domain name with hosting company is : when they shutdown, your domain names and websites dies with them.. :| Cheapest I've seen: http://domainsite.com $6.99 http://namecheap.com $7.99-$8.88 (with coupon)
Do netfirms accept Moneybookers payments or credit cards only? BTW, I've seen vdnw.com sells .COMs for $6.75.
Why avoiding netfirms.com? I registered a domain/hosting there yesterday, technical support is more than kind and helpfull, I'm just wondering why I didn't recieve any confirmation email about registration from them up to now!?
