Yesterday I wanted to register a few domains. So I went to yahoo domains, there I saw the domain registration fee was $9.95.
Then I saw an ad link telling me the yahoo domain fee was $4.98. I followed that website's link to yahoo domains. And found the price was $4.98. I was confused. So I wrote yahoo a message about the diffrence about the prices.
This morning I received a message from yahoo telling me their price is $9.95 . The reason why I saw $4.98 is because of old cache. They told me to clean my cache out and then recheck their site. So I cleaned my cache and went to yahoo domains again.
:confused: :confused: :confused: :blush: :blush: :blush:
I was amazed to see that they are offering domain registration at $1.99(80% off)!!!!
Any one knows why? Does anybody konw the current price of yahoo domain registration?

I have heard of people registering multiple names at once for the low price. Do not know how close they police it
