    Try GoDaddy (.com), where you can use PayPal to buy domain names. You may also try joining their auctions for domains with age that are expiring.

    However I have never heard about NameSilo, while GoDaddy is a wordwide renowned registrar you can rest assured when register a domain through them.

    I think as long as a registrar is accredited by ICANN (not a reseller) that you can rest assured when registering the domain. ICANN has specific rules in place that registrars must adhere to in order to protect the interest of domain holders. Godaddy is obviously the biggest registrar, but does that really mean that you can't rest assured when getting domains elsewhere? I have used a lot of different registrars, including NameSilo, and have never had a problem with any of them. I therefore make my decisions based mostly upon price. I also don't like registrars getting in my way or bombarding me with offers and emails... things Godaddy is notorious for doing (see the post on this board from earlier today "Increase in Advertising emails from Go Daddy"). This isn't meant as a rebuke of Godaddy necessarily, just pointing out that peace of mind is provided by all reputable registrars, and the decision-making process shouldn't be influenced just because of size or being "world renowned". Also, I have to point out that your signature contains what looks like an affiliate link to Godaddy, so perhaps you are a little bias?

    @superrichguy I am unfamiliar with domaintent. What advantages do they bring to the table so that I might consider them in the future
