I have a question. Up until a year ago i used primarily register.com which charges $35 per year for domain registrations.. i sometimes use dotster.com which charges $15 a year for registrations.
I haven't noticed any difference in service (of course i only use their registration service and nothing else)..
What other alternatives are there to register your domain ? are there good reliable places for under $15 a year ? or for more with interesting features ?

OpenSRS resellers like 000domains.com are also good if the domain is important (like if it's beeing used for nameservers etc.). They're $13.50 a year, which is more than Enom will set you back.
For general usage (just for sites) I'd say Enom, as they're cheap, reliable and offer a lot of value for money.

I like GoDaddy because they're cheap and realiable. Never had any problems in over 2 years I've used them.
I also like Mydomain.com a lot. You can register through their partner Namesdirect for $14.95 and then you get ton of free great features from Mydomain like email forwarding, subdomain creation, and DNS management all free. My last couple domains I used GoDaddy then just entered Mydomain.com DNS info so I could use their free features.
GoDaddy (http://www.godaddy.com)
My Domain.com (http://mydomain.com)

Can't say enough good things about 000domains (http://000domains.com), cost a little more but for me worth it :)
I have to agree with Scott. I have about 40 domains at 000domains.com, and every renewal that comes up I transfer domains to that registrar. It doesn't have the lowest prices, but sometimes it is worth paying more. I figure if I want to see this registrar survive for years to come, spending a couple extra dollars there is a small price to pay. Its very easy to transfer ownership of domains there too, which is great when your selling off some domains.
Btw, I have transferred domains from Register.com to 000Domains.com, and it takes just a few days. I never had any problems with transfers between them.
