    Hello,

    I am going to transfer couple of domains from somewhere to either godaddy or namecheap. I have both namecheap and godaddy account.

    Please suggest me where to transfer and why. Thanks.

    For quality of service go with namecheap, for price go with godaddy. There are always loads of vouchers to get a cheaper deal with godaddy but their support stinks and I don't think much of their interface either.

    I'd prefer to transfer my domain to Namecheap - nice control panel, less ads & quality of service as well :)

    Go with Godaddy, although name.com would be even better.

    Transfer your domains to Namecheap.

    I've heard you get a special coupon code for renewals for over 50+ domains from Namecheap support.

    I'll be registering a new domain too. But I'm thinking of registering it to dynadot? anyone can tell about dynadot? I heard from a domain forum that it's much better than godaddy and namecheap.

    I've been using and trying several over the years.
    namecheap number 1,
    and you get 1 year Privacy protection included even for only 1 domain name
    and renewals are less than GD,
    sometimes with a special coupon and more than 5 domains to register, I use GD, and for renewals I transfer then to Namecheap, get another year privacy and coupon deal.

    I prefer Namecheap. I like their management system more than godaddy's and for new registrations they give you free privacy.

    If you are planning to sell your domains then choose godaddy :)
