Namecheap is by far better.

I use daddyGo.com :p I just register and change NS's so I don't understand how one could be better than another, maybe support? Enlighten me please.

I've finally gotten all of my domains transferred over to NameCheap now.

I originally used http://register4less.com back in the day because they were the only registrar accepting PayPal at the time.

All of them plus many others.

My vote went to domainsite.com as it is where I purchase the most .com domains.

I used both namecheap and godaddy.
Transfered all my domains to godaddy since they had a multi-domain edit tool.
It's only after the transfer I found namecheap's multi-domain thing :)

And now godaddy's domain admin panel is much improved.

Like:

Godaddy is ok, they are a huge company although don't accept paypal.. And a tad bit to much security..

Namecheap, the best I reckon.. Paypal accepeted, add funds to your account, quick and easy and safe.

I go with namecheap overall.

to be better then the other could be:

cheaper domain offering then others.
live domain activation
free dns hosting
reability NS servers

They're all crap, because they overcharge.

I use http://www.optinom.com/

NAMECHEAP.COM is by far the best for me, I moved all my domains from godaddy.com to namecheap. Name Cheap has excellent support and also the interface is simple. When I'm purchasing a domain at namecheap.com I don't get hammered the hundreds of offers like godaddy.

The domain registrars I use are the following:

Domainsite.com - I have 7 domains with them, and I haven't received any problems whatsoever. They have a nice easy to navigate control panel.
Namecheap.com - I like there control panel, and the service they provide is nice
Godaddy.com - I find that the control panel is to cloggy
Registryfly.com - Just like Namecheap, there contorl panel is easy to navigate around
Yahoo SmallBusiness! - I wish I never bought a domain from them, they only allow credit cards, but I guess I can't really sell the domain since the domain cannot be transferred - which is a downer.

I use http://www.optinom.com/

they overcharge...?

Ok, i guess these guys might be cheaper, and i know this might seem off topic, but ive just got to point something out.

I just now built a custom plan with optinom hosting to discover prices, i had the following specs

Space : 5Gb
B/W: 50Gb
20 email adresses
50 Mysql
and just about nothing else, except for ssl managment and a few other options (not costing more than 5 USD) and the calculated price per month was ................ OVER 500 USD PER MONTH !!!!! you can get a top end dedi from a very reliable host for less than that.

so yeah, they might be cheap for somethings, but NEVER get hosted with them.their only market must be rich people with websites who dont know what to do with their money :P

It's not a host dude, it's just a directi reseller, you obviously don't want to use them for hosting, and this thread isn't about hosting - it's about domains.

Of course it would be grand to become a directi reseller, because then you can have domains for like $7/year, but you need a $500 deposit ><

I use wisenic.in a reseller of Directi. I can control child nameservers more easily with them!

GoDaddy is what i use, i have 2 at Moniker, but thats only because they were free at the time :p

GoDaddy i find are better because the control panel is easier to use than ever before & they are good with support (i get a reply within 1 hour) Also, GoDaddy do accept PayPal, but not invoices, they do it so you allow them to take the money out whenever it needs to be taken, like what Napster do and iTunes (USA Only)

I voted GoDaddy, but I have names at eNom too. I am planning to switch all my domains to one or the other, but I have not yet decided which I'll go with. I think I'm leaning towards eNom.

Hi, (first post)

I have a couple of hundred domains all with GoDaddy. I like NameCheap but GoDaddy's $6.99 price swings it for me.

IrishBoy

ps .. never search for a domain with Name.com unless you are goint to register straight away .. trust me.

I'm using NameAlerts.com, They're an enom reseller, their site and control panel is plain and simple with no clutter. I used Godaddy in the past but found it a pain to navigate with all the clutter in their control panel. I pay $8.95 a year which is pretty fair in my opinion especially for the simplicity of their control panel.

90% of my domains are in moniker (http://www.moniker.com) and geek domains (http://www.geek-domains.com) (a godaddy reseller). I also use eurodns (http://www.eurodns.com), namecheap (http://www.namecheap.com) and domainsite.com (http://www.domainsite.com).
