Well, looks like I'll be moving all of my domains to a different registrar. Anybody have any suggestions for a good one?


I've used Namecheap for a couple a while back, and had no problems. Their online interface is quite nice and a lot better than GoDaddy's. I recently heard of some people saying their customer support isn't very good though, so that may be something to look out for.


I dealt with their customer service about 2 years ago and it was fine. Fairly quick, they solved my problem.


Namecheap currently has a deal running just for this: http://twitter.com/#!/Namecheap/status/149919610253213697


I use gandi.net - I've found the prices to be great. They're also based in France, which means they won't be victim to any of this SOPA idiocy (until the EU passes something similar, I suppose).


I use www.dyn.com for all my domain and dns stuff and would recommend them in a heart beat.

Note: they're not the cheapest though if that's something important to you.


I just moved 5 domains to namecheap from godaddy. I used coupon code SWITCH2NC to get $1 off each domain I was transferring.


+1 for namecheap. I've been migrating domains away from GoDaddy over the past 2 years to namecheap with positive results.


I've heard many people mention namecheap and dreamhost as good alternate registrars that charge about the same as godaddy.


Yes, namecheap is good and it as a simpler interface than Godaddy, which is way too cluttered.


I've had good luck with namecheap.


Another vote for namecheap here. I switched over when old man Parsons took a lot of pride in his hunting videos. I'm not an activist or anything, but he could at least conduct himself with a bit of tact.


I've used pairnic for ten years for personal sites, never any trouble, they'll probably be in business longer than me.
