I am looking to register a .cc domain name who has the cheapest rates? Network solutions is at 35 a year, but they are network solutions, if you know what i mean. So please let know who has the cheapest rates on .cc domain registration.
-Thanks a Bunch!

That is an awsome deal just a couple of q's.
1. I am going to be starting a web hosting company on a .cc domain name, do you think that looks unprofessional or stupid to have a .cc domain name?
2. Will this name zero allow me to register my own name servers into their database so that others can register domains with my name servers?
-Thanks a bunch!

I'd be weary of doing any business with NameZero. I've had lots of bad experience with them in the past.

Could you please tell me exactly what problems you have had specificly? And what about my questions about the profesionalism of a .cc domain name and if i can register my name servers into there database since i will be starting a web hosting company and will require my own name servers, that need to be registered.

The easiest place I've ever found to create nameservers (and there may be other places, but I've not tried them) are the OpenSRS registrars. While a .cc wouldn't be bad, it certainly isn't ideal and I think you have to decide if you feel you'd think twice about signing up with a .cc host yourself. If yes, well then...
Yeah... a .cc would not be my first choice for a hosting domain name, unless it was a really good one (like webhost.cc).
It's not like it hasn't been tried before though... for example, HostRocket.com used to be called hostfree.cc before their name change a while back. However, people tend to mistrust sites that don't end in the familiar .com or .net, and quite a few people don't even know how ccTLDs work and might type in yourname.cc.com or yournamecc.com by mistake.
If you need help with a name, I'm sure the WHT community can offer you some suggestions.

Well, all the good .com .net domains are taken and i want a really good domain. Do you think .ws or .biz would be better? I get what your saying how they are so new that people might be a little iffy. Its almost like seeing a host on a subdomain for a free host or somthing.. I dunno, more opinions would be great..
