Domain Names: Still Paying Too Much?
Avoid the Big Registrars - The priciest domain names are
sold through the legendary and established domain name
registries. Many have been charging their customers $25 or more
for years, but you don't have to pay that much! They want you to
think they are "it" when it comes to registering your domain
names; quite frankly, they aren't "it!"
Shop the Domain Specialists - Today, there are several
well known companies charging just $10, $8, even $5 for new
domain names. I cannot name the companies, but one noted
provider has a popular Super Bowl ad to its credit.
Free, Via Your Web Host - A big "come on" for some web
hosting providers is to offer a domain name free for one year to
all new customers. Simply commit to hosting your site with them
for one year and a domain name is included for free.
Of course, some sites will charge you more for a .com name vs. a
.net or .biz account. Others will discount their prices even
further if you commit to longer terms, lasting as long as ten
years. Select the plan that works best for you.
So, quit paying too much for your domain names; you have a
choice. Shop around today and save money for all of your sites.
