Goddy is the cheapest but not the best.
If its a good name, plan on bidding it out at Snap or possibly Pool.

it is a pretty good compound word, the .net,.org&.info are already
registered. so I figure it will mostly likely be backordered by someone.
I may give Pool.com a try since they are free unless they capture it. I may also let godaddy have a try at it.

Anyone else?


thanks,

I may recommend SnapNames, as they previously won a name for me, even if it was 'just' a .net..
( I would choose Pool and SnapNames over GoDaddy, if the name is important to you.. )

also see if the registrar has a partner for the drops
pool may be useless if its an NSI regsitration, for example, Snap would have first dibs at it.

At the moment, I know of no evidence that Tucows is partnered up with a drop catcher.
They will very soon, there's been talks about it.

I use Enom Club Drop and I catch names allmost everytime. I have used Pool but I prefer Club Drop
