Free dns, free privacy protection - this is the most competitive domain service (speaking for resellers of resell.biz, ex-Stargate resellers).

Made my day, I needed to point around 30 domains at Google Adsense for Domains - it's going to be much easier now and less time consuming.

That's pretty cool..

seems like this update is from logicbox.. the masthead image is also changed.. looks pretty now..

You can see these changes on other logic box user also.. for eg netearthone.. their pricing page still shows .25 for DNS along with the sidebar saying DNS Free :D:D

Yes, this is a brand new change (I remember yesterday that I logged in did not see this!) so some static pages should be updated :)

Yes, this is a new change effecitve apr5 per NE1 email. It's a great addition, though NE1 only charged .25 for it which was much cheaper than stargate or directi.

The only changes that have been announced to me as a NE1 reseller are the free DNS options and the related changes to the supersite/control panel and API.

It will be excellent if they make URL/Email forwarding free too, as it is offered by many leading registrars like NameCheap, Name.com, GoDaddy, eNom etc. I won't mind if there is a slight increase in pricing for that, since overall it will be easier to get things done too. (maybe $0.15 increase?)

RC states that Domain/URL forwarding is free and you say that its a paid addon... Where did you get this info and how do you know that it isn't free when it states that its free on RC/LB website.

The question should be where did you get your info from.
RC websites states only that DNS Server and Privacy Protection are free.

This is what I got.


RC Staff: Free DNS and domain forwarding are 2 different services
RC Staff: Domain forwarding service is used to forward domains where as DNS is used to ADD records, DNS records

You can use the DNS service to create a record to forward the domain. The only difference is that when you forward with DNS record the URL will change in the address bar where as in the domain forwarding you have the option of masking the address as well as forwarding SUb-domains
