I'm looking to register quite a few domains in bulk. I'm looking for two registrars; one with the best price and another one with great support. So far my searches have led to Namecheap. The price is fine, and lots of features are included as well. However GoDaddy is a bit cheaper (and it makes a difference for me as I am registering many domains), so I might go with them for some of my domains that do not need a lot of support. Who's your favorite registrar?
I've used GoDaddy for my 20 to 30 domain names that I have. I believe that there was another thread started with more information on registars. Good luck!
I'd have to say GoDaddy - I've been using them for years and have had only a minor customer support issue with them. Other than that, I can't complain.
Now I see it. Sorry about that...I guess we can change the thread topic to which registrar you find to be the cheapest? Some of these domains I just register for reselling purposes, and it doesn't really need to have anything like WHOIS Guard or other extras. And Chris, that's another plus for GoDaddy. So far I'll probably be registering most domains with them, because they are a bit cheaper than Namecheap.
I have have domains with both godaddy and namecheap. After reading this site though it got me scared. I have found that namecheap is actually cheaper if you find some of their coupons
NoDaddy has literally changed my mind. Some really scary stuff happen with GoDaddy... Might as well go with Namecheap. I've only found one coupon so far for May however, and it brings down the price to $8.81. Seems nice. Just bought a couple domains and so far the control panel is a lot more impressive than Yahoo's.
To be honest, Richard, I think you're reading a bit "too" much into what's being said on that propaganda-based website. Of course, I've never had any problems... so I'm a bit biased.
hahaha I have never had any issues either, but it just makes you wonder. The majority of my domains are held with godaddy. I will say however I really really like how namecheap's admin panel is set up.
Compared to godaddy? A million times better. Just seems easier, more logical. Also not everything you do opens in new damn windows!!! :mad2:
DynaDot was another of my favorites, however unlike Namecheap it had a confusing system in place, with all their transaction numbers and domain listing. Namecheap's control panel is really easy to use. Took me five minutes to add CNS records and setup nameservers. Also propagates faster than most...in 30 minutes it's already changed.
I agree. When you consult a congregation of anti-whatevers, you can't expect to read any positives. What you need is an unbiased group; i.e. AdminAddict.
I've never heard of them. I just checked them out and their prices aren't bad. $8.88/year with $0.50 for hidden WHOIS data.
About the same as namecheap...$8.81 with free hidden data. Also with godaddy if you buy over 5 domain you get free hidden WHOIS data with all.
To be honest (and also blunt), I couldn't care less about the prices. What I do care about, however, is the control/administrative interface... and I'm getting rather sick of GoDaddy's.
I'm quite the opposite in this case. But If I was substantially wealthy, I'd be in the same boat as you. For now though, every penny counts.
Nick, I'm sure that you mentioned this somewhere earlier in the thread (or maybe not), but do you host any domains with GoDaddy? If so, what are your thoughts on their administrative interface?
