What are the benefits of transferring my domain names?
 

I have 12 domain names that come up for renewal next year. I have had them registered with domainnamesystems.com from the beginning. Is there a benefit or transferring my domain names elsewhere? If so, why?

A domain pro will probably be by any minute to answer that for you...
But why exactly do you want to move them?

I placed mine all on NameCheap. I did so because i enjoy their system and service.

It's not that I want to move them, but I was wondering if there were any benefits of moving them.

If you are satisfied and confident with the stability of where your domains are then leave them, if not, then move them.

benefits? usually not, they all cost more or less the same everywhere. as long as the current service is fine you just put yourself in danger that something goes wrong and your domains are not accessible.

nobody asked her to show her tits :Oh crap

price or a better control panel are usually reasons to swap registrars

I'm sure most people here have seen them by now. But they're always nice for an encore.

yeah - but for 12 domains? if you have 500 or 1000 maybe...

Bulk price if you have a lot's of domains.

Aria. I still have those domains for you.

You never told me what you wanted to do with them.

I talk to you about em maybe once every 2 years.. Ive hung on to em for ya.

E-mail me...it's the same address as before.

main reasons to move would be better pricing and/or more user friendly systems.

if your paying more than $8 a year - your paying too much..

So do I thats the only place I ever bought my domains

Id go with one that has a good reputation and not becasue they are cheap. Someone who has a good track record in the industry is also important with the current and future political pressures facing the industry are also things to consider.

Many are moving to off shores registars. Being you are in adult you are never far within reach of US obscenity laws if they wanted to make your life tough.

With that said my wife says hello. Hope to see you in January. Maybe for a dinner again.

if you move registrars... it COULD affect your se ranking.

not saying it will. the bots seem to prefer stability.

Check http://www.lotosus.com got some special deals for transfers.

Aria,

The only place I would move them to would be Moniker.com :2 cents:

for z better pricing $

If you consider your domains to be valuable assets, as I do, then you want a secure registrar. A good registrar will lock down your domains and prevent domain thefts.

For this, I recommend Moniker.

:thumbsup

What are the good companies to go with as far as transferring domains? I have heard Moniker mentioned twice on this thread and I have spoken to Bari about this before at a show. Just wondering what are the good options.

domainmonger.com <-- been around for years. no problem with porn domains ... very reliable and great dns services ... but ... $17.00/year

$7.49 per domain with webair.com ICANN ACCREDITED REGISTRAR. =) Shit if it's Aria i'll transfer & register them for you free! =))

Moniker for sure

I use godaddy they have been fine for me and only $6.85 per domain.

DH

Maybe save $1 per domain.

GoDaddy.

godaddy is the worst! uyyy

you are a one man spamming machine lol

Stay with domainnamesystems Aria. I have had hundreds of domains there for years and never had a single problem. I have tried every registrar and imho you cant beat DNS. The couple of bucks you might save somewhere else is not worth it. :2 cents:

sell me your names :)

Funny, we have 100's of domains with them, for years, with not one problem, ever.

i have close to 1000 domains registered with godaddy, i have my rep's number in my phone, i can call their support 24 hours a day. never one mistake on billing, renewals or transfers. 7 bucks per domain. not sure what people are talking about when they trash godaddy.

If I have one complaint about them it is their eagerness to help . . . which has resulted in them calling me earlier than I wanted to wake up.

Hrmmmmmmmm I'm only seeing benefits if you transfer them to me...

Hey Aria

Happy New Year baby girl! Hit me up about transferring your domains to Moniker! :thumbsup You know I'll take good card of them - and you! :winkwink:

I'm Happy!
 

I have 13,200+ registered at GoDaddy, and am very happy with everything about them:-)).

dave

Hope to see you in Vegas.

Aria, I should have you post for me the next time I have a question that needs answered. You get responses like it's your job ;)

Seriously don't use godaddy the customer service sucks. Moniker for the win. You can chat with the moniker guys at the webmaster conventions you go to.

I agree!:thumbsup

.............

Thanks for all the shout outs!

Aria - It was great chatting with you! Let me know when you get the auth codes and we'll getcha taken care of :thumbsup

See ya in Vegas baby girl!

The guys over at Moniker know what they're doing. ;)
