I just got spammed by *****.com, but quite interested in their domain registration service. It's probably the cheapest one out there at only $6.95/year.

Please share your thoughts and experiences if you ever have the chance to use their service. I'm considering to move all my domains to them if they are realy that good at that extremely low pricing!

Not ANY URL, but it seems that only this URL gets starred. Don't know why, maybe one of the moderators put it on a "blacklist"?

Anyhow, I wasn't spammed by them, but I heard about them and decided to write to them. They seem OK, and I'm considering using them, but I don't [knowingly] deal with companies that spam.

The price does not include domain forwarding. I think it's $2 extra. The price does include DNS settings, etc. I guess if you really need forwarding they're not for you.

I might try them with one domain and see how they stack up. With their price, it could save a good amount of money per year on all my domain names.

I got spammed by them too. I went to the site after hearing the costs, and it looks alright. I dunno, seems alittle to fake.

They are a dotRegistrar reseller AFAIK. They pay the wholesale rate of $6.50, so they only make 45 cents per domain. At least if they go out of business, your domain will be safe because in reality its with dotRegistrar.

And you wonder why their name is starred? Yes, they've come to the forum and spammed the forum, as well as spammed so many people that they've been censored. Please do not support companies who spam you and this forum. If you do, you're only validating their methods. Ask for companies like them that DO NOT send out tons of spam.

Chicken,

Thanks for the details on this. I had a feeling that the stars meant that they weren't exactly welcome here.

In any case, I'll stick with my current registrar. Thanks.
