Pros: Best contract I've found, good reviews, been around for a while.
Cons: Not in U.S., no private domain registration, $12 per year, limited payment options.

I have found Godaddy to be good so far. I have seen posts by others who disagree. Based on what I have seen others write, if you live outside U.S.A. or if you pay by other than credit card, you have increased risk of problems.
So far I have no problems with Namecheap. Namecheap is an ENOM reseller. Is a reseller bad? Not necessarily. ENOM is the registrar, but the reseller does the account processing and customer service. That can be better or worse than what you'd get from a registrar directly. Namecheap seems to do it well.

Enom, for service over price they are the best. Great API and excellent features. Never had a problem with them.

Enom. Besides all their great features they have an excellent customer service. This is something that you learn to appreciated after a few problems with other registrars.

Postmaster - As Googled mentioned there are already thousands of similar posts around, so there is no point in starting a new thread.

I love my enom reseller account. But, for just a few domains, NameCheap's prices and customer interface are outstanding.

Just a short notice. From Customer Support side, I have to admit that Network Solutions is the best.

If I don't get a response to my question to Joker from about 12 hours ago, Moniker will become my first choice.
I sent different questions to about four different companies in a row and haven't received any responses. Are my questions so hard? For example, I asked Joker:I don't have a credit card, but I could get a pre-paid Mastercard (probably not a Eurocard because I'm in the U.S.) or Visa. Visa's website says their prepaid cards work where ever Visa debit cards are accepted. Could I use either the Mastercard or the Visa card? Otherwise, all I have is a personal check.

Enom and Godaddy should be considered one of the best registrar's as they have very well managed frontend and backend.
One should register domains only from such registrars as any other registrar may create problem for your domain in future and one can loose an important domain if it is registered from a wrong registrar.

Registerfly is a reseller of eNom. Do all eNom resellers give direct access to dns management on eNom database?
