Got this bud who wants to start his own business on the net so I thought I'd see what you all have to say. I haven't kept up with it since that one company that had the market cornered got busted up. Was it ICANN? .. All I remember is other countrys were complaining because of the monopoly.

Thanks

I think ICANN is still the main one, and all the others are affiliates/resellers.

Google for "cheap domain registeration", get the best deal

[CoasterFreak]

I suggest 1and1.com or yahoo for domains. Stay away from GoDaddy

ICANN never sold domains, maybe you're thinking of Netsol or VeriSign. Its hard to recommend a company without knowing what TLD he's trying to register, but there's a list here:

Thanks Everyone. I can't give out his idea since he just thought it up and could turn out to be a real money maker.

I will post back when he's all setup.

I suggested a *.com because I believe those are the most popular.

Well here's a list of registrars for .com:

Why stay away from godaddy? It's just fine.

Anyway, I prefer namecheap.com. Use the code EVENLOWER to get a discount. The price will be 7.98 or something like that, and you can pay using paypal.

I recommend RadioTower.net. It's the registrar for TSG and my website as well as for several friends of mine's sites. A bit more expensive than some others......but I trust Mike Cermak more than some others............

I use and recommend Go Daddy. I have never had a problem with them.

Use 1and1 you get about 600 bucks worth of free software and its pretty nice just dont use the insite website builder
Stay away from godaddy at all cost I hate it

[simplelance.com]

thats simple ipower.com $2.95 a domain i get all mine there excellent live help and support

[ablaye]

With Yahoo, you can get a domain for $3.95 I believe. I like Yahoo better and you don't have to host your website with them.

[coachdan32]

You don't have to host with Go Daddy. I use a different host, but bought my domain from them.
