Stargate is pretty good now, but they have had their problems in the past. I would reccomend Godaddy more though. If you need free DNS, then check out Mydomain (http://mydomain.com) or Zoneedit (http://zoneedit.com) .

Hi,

Yes, 7.95$ is reliable, but not at least.

Have a nice day
:)

Stargate is reliable I've used it. Yes, dns and 1 free pop3 account.

Heres the catch!! This is the same business model they used with .coms. They sold 2 for eight dollars each. This obviously made people flock to buy domains. Once they attracted enought ppl they jacked up renewal and registration to $14. Thats what will happen again.

I predict that all the sub-$10s will do the same thing. There is not enough margin in a sub-$10 domain name to pay the overhead for domain registration if you are running a serious business.

When do you say this will happen?

If you look at when Stargate did it, it was about a year after they had a large influx of registrations - so about the time the renewals came due on their first big thrust.

I suspect about this time next year we'll see both eNom and GoDaddy raise their prices - though it might be a little longer.

Pure speculation on my part of course :classic2:

I predict buying a lot of domains in a hurry right around now.
