Heh. Catchy name. Need-a-dot-com? :D

No, prior to this I hadn't heard of them, but beware, they are offering Unlimited Disk and bandwidth on at least one of their plans. Unlimited is nothing but a marketing ploy - there is no truly unlimited disk or data transfer.

Take care,

Ahh...didn't pay too much attention to the hosting, domains are like 8.99 but couldn't find who they are affiliated with, like icann, enom, etc

You can check to see whether they're affiliated with ICANN at <http://www.internic.net/alpha.html>. As far as I can see they're not, which would leave me to believe that they might be a GoDaddy private label reseller?

Their web site looks okay, but if they're offering unlimited disk space and/or bandwidth, that should certainly light up warning lights.

I believe it's enom. I looked up a domain for someone that came up as being registered through enom and then they got all confused because they registered it through there.

Needa is a great place to register your domains at;) I have about 10 currently with them and my woman has a couple now too;)Any time ive had a question support has gotten back to me within 3-5 hours and even on the weekends;)Also their price is pretty decent;)

Oh ya the unlimited thang I just ignored it seeing as i allready had a host for my domains. Anyway as far as registering domains with em I dont think you'll find a better place
