I was wondering where the best place to get email and URL forwarding from

i just found redirection.net but need an opinion on them

Hi,

What do you want to forward, a domain name?

Regards.

yes a domain name sorry i didn't make it more obvous

i just found mydomain.com and registered with them but i am still looking for the catch because they have to make their money somehow and they just say its free on the site

Hi,

Well, here in the UK, http://www.ukreg.com and http://www.oneandone.co.uk offer cheap domain registration with free email and web forwarding. You could transfer your domain name to them and use the forwarding facility. I use http://www.ukreg.com and would recomend their service (don't know if they are the cheapest).

All invoices are emailed, so no problem there.

Hope it helps.

I've used mydomain.com for 4 of my domains for well over a year. I've never had any problems with them. If you've got web space somewhere else and don't need hosting, they provide a great free service.

In addition to redirection.net and mydomain.com, a few others are:

zoneedit.com (free for up to 5 domains, I think?)
centralinfo.net
ultradns.com

I have also used mydomain.com for a couple of years w/o any problems, and to me, their domain configuration setup is much better designed than the one's at zoneedit.com or redirection.net. That said, I'd still check out the others for yourself.

Best wishes,

John

You are correct about ZoneEdit.

UltraDNS is a fabulous system (being one of the beta users) but they now charge an arm, a leg and everything else in between for a few domains.
