well, after a while of thinking of using i tried the fly out...boy it felt good. $10 and whois protection...good deal. and it was real easy. feel a sense of liberation from godaddy. and they'll be accredited very soon so more domains ---> to the fly. dmaven, you were right all along...just wish i would have listened 7 domain names ago.

Hello slusher7!

I agree with you on this. I made the move from the Big Daddy to the Fly half a year ago, and I must say I am very happy with both their web interface and their services.

Can you guys be more specific as to why GoDaddy isn't good? :)

I have all my domains on GoDaddy. And I am not complaining. What do you guys see that I dont'? :)

Hello hellind2!

For me, it's mostly the interface of the system that was frustrating me from time to time.

Good to hear, the 24 x 7 phone support is an awesome feature they offer. I also agree Godaddy s@cks

it's not that they were ever bad, but that they offer the same service for more $$$. go daddy never really wronged me...ok they charged me on a domain renewal because it come defaulted that way to renew, but i should have been more careful. but their private whois costs $9 and registerfly is at most $.99. and the godaddy price has gone up $.25 whereas nobody else is passing on the icaan fee. also check the flypaper for great deals. the interface for godaddy i'm more used to, so it's too early to say if i like rfly's more.
