The cheapest domain registrar

[GeorgeB]

Who currently is the cheapest domain registrar? Netfirms.com used to be it for me, but not anymore. Now they switched over to canadian for some reason, and they are almost $11 for first year, instead of 4.95.

I will be pointing the name servers over to hostgator.com anyways, but I still would like a cheap one. Thanks.

I haven't seen any really cheap ones lately. I stick with Namecheap, because the service is decent. But $9-$10 seems to be the norm with com/net/org lately. I think the rates are just going up on domain names across the board.

 

[GeorgeB]

yeah, definitely seems that way.

For me, godaddy with promo codes.

Cheapest would be http://active-domain.com/ they offer .COM for $2.85 per year as advertised on their site, however I use GoDaddy and DynaDot since they are far more easier and professional-looking IMO.

Cheaper isn't always better, keep that in mind. I have registered a few domains with poor registrars and it has caused a lot of hell.

Namecheap is where almost all my domains are owned anymore, and I wouldn't really stray anywhere else. Never had an issue, control panel is easy and fast, and their prices are competitive. Maybe not the cheapest, but I've been down that road and for $10 a domain, I won't complain.

name.com are not too bad.

The price might depend on the domain name extension:
- TLD1 might be the cheapest from REGISTRAR#1
- TLD2 from REGISTRAR#2

I agree with you, GoDaddy has many great promotions and you can get a .com for less than 7$.

I liked Enom.com. Now it seems Namecheap can provide the best prices.
