Low cost Domains from Yahoo!

I have seen an ad abt yahoo domain at $2 for first year !

But I am unable to sign up it !!!

Did anyone get it ?

 

why the one i saw was like 7$ a month? or maybe it was not from yahoo...

 

No this offer is for registering the first domain for a particluar yahoo account. Next domains will be charged at 9.99 as well as the renewals.

 

Yea, remember, it stated FIRST YEAR, i can't sign up too, but it's ok, forget it.

 

I got problem while paying the cash.Its hows that there is temp error and retry again later.But never works !!!

 

Don't be caught up by the few dollars savings in the first year, it can add up to something come renewal time.

 

i registered a .com domain with yahoo by 2$ before 2 years .
After the first year was about to end, i transfered the domain to godaddy

So yahoo offer is good for the first year

 

Are you sure Yahoo let you transfer domain to other registrar?

 

I also think yahoo! will allow :

but even godaddy cost u more ??

 

yes they allowed me . Why will they prevent ?!

When i transfered it i used a godaddy coupon code as i remember

 

Yahoo domains is a nightmare to most webmasters...don't ever use them!

 

Yes, its allowed. I have transfered few domains without any problem. Even still i have registered few domains with Yahoo for 1 or 2 yrs.

 

I don't think Yahoo even allows internal transfers. Pretty useless if you ask me.

 

No Yahoo does not allow internal transfers. You have to cancel something like the domain which will be placed in holding for you, Than you go to the registar of your choice to start the transfer. Than and only than you may transfer.

And the $2 is only for the 1st domain. Tough break to be able to get only 1 domain out of the deal. But that is business and is the draw into it.

 

Some one say to me it's not good, because you have to register another year when you register one year .

 

Not true. You may register it 1year at a time. But what you are probably speaking of is that certain extensions require a 2 year. .com, .net, .org and a few other major domain extension only require 1yr.

 

Well you could buy a domain for $2 from Yahoo and before you need to renew it, move it to godaddy.com

 

I had a chance to deal with a Yahoo hosting account for a customer. Weird experience. As for cheap Y! domains, I was kept away by the incertitude of transfering it to another registrar once purchased at Yahoo.

 

I have a couple of domain regged with yahoo at $1.99... Off course with different accounts...

 

IF you plan to transfer in the near future, make you transfer the domain first and then cancel the plan. You've to cancel it else you'll get charged even though you've transferred the domain to a different provider.
