Who do you think is the best registrar? - geek/talk: Signature-free discourse for serious web publishers

Skystar · 03-06-2001, 03:39 AM

I have a bunch of domains registered with Network Solutions, but I'm getting kinda nervous with their style. I hear that if a domain expires it's darned near impossible to re-register it, they keep names for their own account, etc. I'm hassling with them now over a name I paid for but they don't show as paid. I faxed them a copy of the processed check, etc etc, but I'm probably gonna have to pay again.

So who do you think is the best, most responsive, cost-effective, solid, dependable registrar?

i have around 10 domain names with 000domains.com and am very happy with the service ... moreover the price of $13.50/domain is reasonable http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif

i just registered 2 domain names with powerpipe.com and and everything seems great ... moreover the price is only $8.88/domain http://geekvillage.com/ubb/biggrin.gif ... however, in terms of solid and dependable ... i think 000domains would be better as they have been around for some years and everyone i know and most of this bb members are happy with the service ... just my 2 cents http://geekvillage.com/ubb/smile.gif
