I just came across this site (http://www.bigfoot.com) which states domain registration at US$4.95. Heard of it before? Who has domain with them? Can they be trusted?

The thing that caught my eyes apart from $4.95 was that the cost for registration of domain for two years was around $19.**. Why was it so? Any idea?

Opps! just saw test saying "OCTOBER FEST SPECIAL" Sorry guys.

;) Always helpful to read everything before signing up.

As they said, it would be a promo to get more domain customers in hope that those customers will purchase something else from them.

For 2 years they would charge their normal rate which seems to be approx $9.50 a year.
