Hmm on alot of the cheap pricing there are a couple things to watch out for. One is that single year catch. Double the price and then compare it to intenic, networksolutions etc pricing!!
One place to shy away from is Oznic.com. They are Aussie based and you can ask just about any host company as to the horrors of dealing with them. They make themselves your admin, contact and tech controllers and its pure hell getting them off. We had to appeal to corenic and networksolutions on 4 domains they held 'hostage' of ours. It came to the point that the hubby booked a flight to do some commando work in Oz. lol Hell we couldn't even transfer the sites to our new host for 3 months!!! They have you in a catch 22 circle jerk with the tech mail to them for host switching.
We've been dealing online since 94 and the one thing you must always do. (Found out ourselves) ALWAYS keep checking back with the registrars and make sure your domain gets transferred into your name. There are ppl out there that take your money and scam you all the time. They aren't even licensed by Corenic to sell domains. 10 bucks can surely add up when times by 500 or 5000 people 'buying' their services. lol
Tam, still owe you a mail but we might be able to help you with that prob. We sort of have alot of experience and some 'ins' in the right places. lol

Oh...and once a month, hit a registrar and make sure someone hasn't stolen your domain registrations. It happens alot more that folks know. Make sure your info is up to date and in your name. It's also best to use your host companies physical address as well. Most hosts will allow that if you talk to them.
