I use DNS Made Easy for all of my DNS hosting, which I'm happy to recommend. For domain registration I found that joining the GoDaddy Domain Club ( $120/year or less if you pay ahead for multiple years [1] ) is a good deal for the quantity of domains I own (56 and counting). It's kind of like Sam's Club -- you pay a membership fee for lower bulk pricing. Additionally they handle nearly every TLD, like .us, .name and co.uk. NearlyFreeSpeech.net looks to have pricing that is close to that of the Domain Club, may have to check them out. The Domain Club cost of $120 divided by 56 domains is about $2.15 per Domain, so NearlyFree wins handily. I'd like to learn more about the WHO behind NFSN, as well as how and when they offer support. TLD NearlyFree GoDaddy Domain Club [Adjusted] com $9.34 > $8.29 [$10.44] org $11.39 < $11.99 [$14.14] net $10.54 > $8.99 [$11.14] info $10.69 > $9.99 [$12.14] name $8.99 < $9.99 [$12.14] biz $11.19 < $11.99 [$14.14] In the 10-15 years of using GoDaddy, despite my disagreement with some of their marketing and public business positions, my domains don't get stolen, they haven't shut anything down, I haven't lost a domain name, and their support is decent when I need it (and it is 24/7 phone / email / chat).

Hello All,
Sorry if this is low level. But are people sick of registrars jacking up prices? Who is the cheapest and most reliable? I have been using whois.com, networksolutions.com and am looking for input on who is cheap, secure, reliable registrar. Thanks for your input.
