Who's your favorite domain registrar in 2010 and why?

godaddy is ridiculous. I'm sorry to say that I actually defended them in a post a while back. It was primarily because they were very cheap, but when you consider that other providers charge ~$10 which includes automatic private registration, it's not even cheap, it's the same!

The last straw was when I tried to link a "this domain is available" page with godaddy - you can't it uses some stupid weirdo asynchronous loading (yeah because the other 453 things on the page are so important, they've got to load first).

SO F them, I use dreamhost.com now but that's primarily because I have had an account with them from a couple years back when I had a shared hosting account. They get out of the way, the fee is $10 bucks auto private. Simple, done.

Also someone here recommended domai.nr/ for domain searching. I'm a big fan!

I still use godaddy because I have about 50+ domain names. Its a hassle, I'd love to switch to something better, but I don't really have the motivation.

My favourite is http://joker.com/ because they are very professional and honest.

name.com is probably the best. - free private registratoin - free google hosting - free dns managemnt - easy interface

I've been happy with http://www.gandi.net/

How much do you pay for sub-domains? 123-reg.co.uk charges $15 (GBP 10) per sub-domain.

Moniker, 4 years and counting, still a happy high volume customer.
