Does anyone know of a company that provide the facilities and scripts so that people can search and purchase a domain from my site, without referring them on, so that it looks like I offer the service, and make a couple of penies :-)

Thanks!

try Dotster.com --- I am using it and love it. It was pretty easy to customize my layout and frame the URL. go to http://ir.dotster.com --- its free right now!

No fees plus its pretty easy to setup.

Absolutely ideal ! apart from the fact, I am UK based, and mostly deal with .co.uk , which they do not support :-(

Any other ideas ?

OpenSRS also offer .co.uk domains. However, you will have to pay for a set amount of registrations in advance, and they aren't as easy to set up.

* Individual .co.uk and .org.uk registrations at a cost of $13.00 US for two years.

That's pretty expensive, considering I get them for around $9 just now, maybe I just need a script that will search for available domains and then an order form and then manually register them afterwards.

Do you pay $9.00 for 2 years or PER year?

Because according to what you copied and pasted, that's $13.00 for 2 years.

Could be wrong though!

It is a problem in the UK as most companies that offer this kind of service only trade in US$

If you are looking for a script however, zaygo do a good domaincart script, not cheap but looks very professional

Hope this helps

I pay $9 per 2 years, so $13 doesn't help, I'll look up that script thanks !
