    I never heard about this Moniker before I read the replies from you all. ;)
    Looks like Moniker is the best one according to many people here.
    I will check it out...

    By the way, is it located in USA ?

    How is their support ? Fast or slow ?

    May be for next 5 to 10 years. Looking for 10 to 20 domains.

    I want to register every domain first for 1 or 2 years and then keep on renewing. So looking for a company where I don't end up in trouble while renewing.


    My expertize in this area is limited. So trying to know what are all the 'good companies' from already experienced people in this forum. I don't want to end up in trouble by selecting a junk company and lose all my domains. :rolleyes:

    Fabulous.com correct. THey offer com/net/org/info if you read my post I wrote that and lack of whois privacy are only 2 downsides of Fabulous imo.

    Moniker's service can vary a lot. Sometimes it's good, during auction times it can seem like little/no support. I have mixed feelings on the quality of their support service personally. They also just became part of Oversee (DomainSponsor, SnapNames) so a lot seems to be going on over there.

    Answerable==DirectI, I think they have a few registrar credits and run backend for some too (using their LogicBoxes solution)

    Yes,
    As far as I can see,their managements are same.

    And sorry,as you mentioned,
    I know that,1-6 are fulfilled for sure.
    But for rest,I have no bad experiences yet and I wish they are best.
    Good luck !

    LOL....that's a joke. Have you heard about what's going on with them recently & in the past few months?

    If you want the best & most secure & most respected in the domaining community, Moniker is the one & only name that stands out.

    Hi All,
    Thank You all for good advice...

    To start with, I have decided to go with Moniker & NameCheap.

    However keep on giving your feedback & suggesting any other domain registrars you find good.

    Moniker.

    I’m friends with Monte Cahn and Don Lyons and they will both go that extra mile. I’ve got in excess of 1500 domains with them.

    I have some with eNom too, they have always been ok.

    Stay away from GoDaddy.

    Moniker are the best, trust me I've tried them all.

    Just so you know 1&1 is beyond a doubt the worst on the net.
    I hope you're not using their hosting!!

    Yahoo, try to transfer a D from there. Can be done but ya better know what you're doing.

    ThePlanet, bad bizzz to reg a D through any hosting co.
    I have a box at ThePlanet and they're good people.
    Actually they're part of EV1 now.

    :cool:

    Yes they are the same people.

    And they'd get a rating of 9 on a scale of 1-10 from me.

    Anyone to reply on DynaDot ?

    I tried Moniker & NameCheap.

    Moniker: Interface is slow and support is little slow (even though they respond).

    NameCheap: Interface is good and intuitive. Offers and everything good as of now. Need to test their support yet ;)
