    Hi people :D

    I need your opinion. I am not necessarily after the cheapest - but am really needing to know who you recommend to be the most reliable domain registrar.

    I would have to say Godaddy. Easy to communicate with on the rare occasion and cheap.

    GoDaddy. I think most of the domain registrars go with this.

    well i first researched about the domain registrar before registering domains and found "godaddy" highly recommended....but later on I also found "namecheap" to be the 2nd favorite. Now its upto you.....if u want i can research for pros/cons of both...but will take time !

    Namecheap here! Easy to use User CP and easy domain forwarding.

    Domains = easy. Hosting? :p that's another story.

    I transfered a domain from dynadot to namespro before and it got lost. Their support isn't the best but atleast they respond to questions in their forum...

    I would say godaddy if you dont need to speak to them after you buy your domain.

    Thanks guys,

    I think I will go with GoDaddy. I have a few domains with them already, so it will be easier. My dilemma is that when I was new to the internet, nearly a year ago, I didn't know anything about domains etc and registered my first domain with a no-name group. This site is successful now, a year later, and it's time to renew the registration, but I thought it might be a good time to change domain registrars.

    Is that going to give my members downtime? I really haven't done much research into this yet...
