Greetings, What are some registrars that members of this list have had good experience with? I was stepping through the godaddy checkout process, and being opted-in to a dozen different upsell features just left a bad impression. But I have no clue who else to go with. -Eugene -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Recently renewed my domains until ~2017 so no worries for a while I hope. I haven't bought a new domain in about 7 years. Originally transferred off of network solutions because their management interface was pretty cumbersome at the time, I recall having to download forms from their ftp site, and mail them to special addresses and stuff for their systems to parse it, and often times had problems. Foggy memory though. Haven't seen a reason to switch to anything else, it seems a lot of those cheap-o registrars seem to be pretty shady. nate
networksolutions is another good/pricey option...you can get good cs service if you called them, yet I prefer godaddy On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 3:22 AM, Eugene Vilensky <evilensky at gmail.com>wrote:> Greetings, > > What are some registrars that members of this list have had good > experience with?

But I have no clue who else to go with.This morning, I registered a new .COM domain with name.com They provide (if you check the check box) Private Whois service, for as long as you have the domain with them, free. GoDaddy charges $8.99 per year for Private Whois service. The name.com web site is very easy to navigate. I also have 2 domains registered with GoDaddy (and have had for years) and their web site is tough to navigate. On webhostingtalk.com in the Domain Name (?) forum, name.com seems to be well thought of. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

But I have no clue who else to go with.We use Telivo based in London (www.telivo.com) and have had no problems. Unlike some registrars you get full access to your DNS records so we can host our own servers without any hassle.
GoDaddy switched to all windows servers according to NetCraft.com.

I ignore their upsells.. it isn't often that I have to bother going through that as I renew or buy domains once or twice a year.. I renew most of mine at once.
