My regular company, EV1servers.net is currently "not selling Domains at this time." I need an alternative.

Thanks. :)

Melancon,

I have 150 domains with Registerfly.com and its very stable with very nice control panel.

Namecheap and Godaddy are also big names with almost similar prices.

I had been generally pleased with registerfly until recently a problem occurred. After almost two weeks, the problem is still just partialy solved. It took their technical support stuff a long time to answer tickets, and the quality of responses I got wasn't always good. So I wouldn't recommend registerfly (unless all you want is to register domains but don't intend to actually use them...).

at 6000+ names RegisterFly is excellent and I use them exclusively for important names. They are also ICANN accredited

Be aware, the auto-renew is set to ON automatically with 1and1 and involves a whole convoluted effort to shut it off like faxing them a form.

I would choose GoDaddy over Network Solutions and Register.com. I have 1 name at Namecheap (which has good prices) and 1 at Enom (which I think is too expensive unless you're a reseller.)

Good question, maybe regfly can provide more info. I would imagine they would move to their own.
