hi,

I hope i'm on the good forum...

I have 4 domains, all of them are just redirecting to others like blogspot and smugmug.

So i don't use any bandwith or web space. So is there a way to renew my domain every year to do that that ? So it will cost me around 40$/years to renew...

By the way im with Netfirms since last year because i used their maxpc promotion..

I am due in 2 weeks, so please respond fast :)

The wholesale price for .com's to registrars is $7.04 (Verisign + ICANN fees) - increasing to $7.52 on July 1st - so it's hard to buy domains at retail for less than $8-10 each.
Many registrars have lower promotional prices if you transfer in a domain from another registrar (1st year only). Name.com currently has $6.99 transfer pricing.

The cost of the domain doesn't really matter to me, even if it is 10$ each...

I know that some register can offer redirection, but the way i want? i am not sure...?

Enom can do what you need. So can Hostway. Or you could set up a hosting account and park all of the domains on that one account and then redirect them wherever you want.

Enom ? But i have to be a reseller to use that, witch is 200$ fee!

Hostway does not do .ca domain, and i have 2 of them, and 1 .com and 1 .org...

Stick with a Canadian based registrar for your .ca's.
Netfirms is good. I like the support and interface at namespro.ca - but they are more expensive.

I use sibername.com. They are based in Canada and they are not reseller.

Are you looking to host them or redirect them? redirecting is not really a function of the registrar. It is a function of the DNS. Of course in practicality if you are registering them and not hosting them, you are probably going to use the DNS provided by the registrar, so what redirection features you get may come down to the registrar you choose. Are you not getting the features you want from your current provider? I'm just not quite sure what you mean by "but the way i want?"

We use AllDomainRegistrar.com for all our Domains, great Service, good prices.

Of course you use them. It's your company. Same WHOIS as the domain in your signature. :rolleyes:

Park them. Sedo.co.uk is the best place for that.
