I've been happy with www.gandi.net. About $12 a domain, no hassles, excellent service. - Rob On Friday 20 September 2002 09:30 pm, Theo Van Dinter wrote: > On Fri, Sep 20, 2002 at 09:13:25PM -0400, Michael Kingsbury wrote: > > Who's the preferred name registrar now a days? > > I use OpenSRS (or a friend who's a reseller for them anyway), two > thumbs up. > > I used Dotster without any complaints a year or two ago, one thumb up. > > Register.com has annoyed me by sending "Your domain will be expiring > soon, renew now!" postal mails, in a nasty slamming attempt since I've > never used register.com.

I was "given" namesbeyond.com when I grabbed hanley.net via snapnames.com on one impulsive spring day. I really can't say they are good ot bad not having a whole lot of experience with registrars...but I haven't had any problems with them. However, I am confused as to why there are so may registrars and how they all make money. -- Gary ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Kingsbury" <mike(a)beakerware.net> To: <wlug(a)mail.wlug.org> Sent: Friday, September 20, 2002 9:13 PM Subject: [Wlug] Slight O/T: Preferred Registrar? > Who's the preferred name registrar now a days? > > -mike > > _______________________________________________ > Wlug mailing list > Wlug(a)mail.wlug.org > http://mail.wlug.org/mailman/listinfo/wlug > >
