    Don't make the same mistake i did regarding domain registrar

    i used 1and1.com

    i have over 30 domains with them.... and now i do a little backround info because it came to my attention that domains easily get shut down when someone "accuses" you of spamming and some registrars just jump the gun and shut down an account without even really looking into it... 1and1.com seems to be one of those companies...

    now i am going to have to spend 9 dollars for each of my domains to transfer them to namecheap.com

    thought the 6 dollar registration is what lured me into using 1and1.com i should have done more research..

    so spend a few extra dollars and go with a registrar that you know wont fuck you over.... an enom reseller

    namecheap.com

    im in the uk, i use 123reg.co.uk, you can point anywhere so if your host suddenly ups the bill you can move so easily..

        i'm not talkin about webhosts.... and every registrar lets you point to different hosts.... well... if they plan on being in business anyways..

        i'm talking about the registrar itself.. the person you use to register the domain....

            btw, 1and1 is known for poor domains.

            Idiots go where ever is cheapest and they end up paying more, lol.

                  which registrar do you use? i was going to use namecheap because i did a search and didn't find 1 negative comment.. everyone speaks really highly of them... and some pretty high profile domains are with them

                      Oddly enough...I've been using enom directly for about 5 years and have NEVER had ANY problems with them.

                      Of course...I don't use spammers......I only deal with mailers. Spam is not exactly legal these days.

                        aaron how come u say namecheap sucks? arn't they practically the same as your registrar since they are a reseller?


                        edit: actually i retract the comment about being the same ... since anyone can be a reseller.... but how come u say they suck?

                            Ask yourself this question:

                            "Why would I buy something from person B instead of buying it directly from person A?"

                                        ICQ me, reseller accounts can be obtained from eNom partners.

                                        If you want one, lmk.

                                          Heard MANY problems with NameCheap and GoDaddy ... and enom too, though more of such problems seem to be some of enom's resellers.

                                          Moniker may be a good choice, especially since Monte is active on here and at DNForum.

                                                  i go with enom, given their poor customer service and general response times, they're unlikely to get off their ass if you apparently spam

                                                      Use Moniker for your domains and avoid any problems.

                                                                                  weird, I reported the problem, they said it's not their error.
