You can get much lower prices with any enom reseller.

.cc domains are never going to be real cheap, but there are certainly options for less than $60 a year. The ccTLDs will not generally have enough volume to make inexpensive registrations feasible.

$49.95 if you want to pay a one time fee to become
an enom reseller.

$49.95 is still pretty high.

Pawn,

Check you PM's. I sent you one yesterday. I can't quote a price here because this is not an advertising forum.

Do you think a .cc domain is a bad thing to have? The website I'm making I can get a great name with a .cc domain name. .com's are really used up, and I don't have many .com ideas for my site.

We sell a fair number of .cc domains, and they are usually good single word domains that are easy to remember. You don't have to use hyphens, you don't have to stringabunchofwordstogether.com to make a domain name, etc.

If you are actually building a website with them, I think they are fine. If you are speculating to try to sell the domain for big $$ later on, don't waste your time.

I'd have to agree with thewitt. www.trillian.cc is easy to remember :D.

depends on the purpose of the site.

if its a personal site, .cc is fine. but if u want a professional site that is marketing something, .com is the way to go. .cc is too "cute" to be taken seriously.

.com is and always will be the standard.
