Dotster

Pros: Competitive pricing, responsive customer service, easy-to-use interface
Cons: No provision for looking up owner info for domain names already registered

Recently, I decided to stake out a piece of e- real estate by securing my very own dot com address. Vain? Perhaps. Practical? Eventually...I hope so.

As a newbie, I know quite little about the ins and outs of how to set up a website....

Pros: cheap, quick, responsive
Cons: they don't offer some of the more obscure domains like .cc

I have been a faithful Dotster user for quite some time now. I can't remember which of my cyberfriends originally recommended it to me, but am I ever glad they did!

When I was first referred to Dotster, their going rate for registrations was...

Pros: ICANN Accredited; Cheap; Easy; Automated Web Access
Cons: Unfriendly WEB Interface

There have been a lot of positive posts here but none recently, and then there are the really negative posts that made me think twice. Most of the negative posts have to deal with customer service.

Here is my experience with customer...

Pros: very good interface at web, good customer support
Cons: Only com, net, org, tv, and ws.

I have been a domain reseller for about 8 months until the dot com companies started seriously falling off around the summer 2000. When I started the reselling business as a beginner, I knew almost nothing about discount domain brokers. So, as you might...

Pros: Reasonably priced, straightforward and easy to use.
Cons: Where is the phone number? (Not that I have needed it.)

I personally own several domain names. In addition to Dotster, I have had experience with Network Solutions, Register.com, and a couple of small registrars. I must say that Dotster.com is by far and away the best of them. I have now transferred all my...

Pros: Good prices and easy domain registration, renewal, and updates
Cons: Nothing of enough consequence to qualify as a true "con"

Pros: Fast, Easy, Powerful, Cheap domain registration services.
Cons: I'll let you know when I find one!

If you want www.yourname.com, you need a domain registrar and Dotster is one of the easiest, most powerful and least expensive registrars around.

What Domains Does Dotster Register?

Currently you can register .com, .net,...

Pros: easy to use, excellent support
Cons: weren't around a couple years ago

With the recent opening up of domain name registration, and having the need to register a series of new domains, I decided it was time to see what else was out there. After doing some basic research and questioning a few friends, I came across two...

Pros: Inexpensive. If you do talk to someone there, they are more friendly than sullen.
Cons: No phone number, unpredictable response from customer service, defective links sent to complete registration

All I wanted to do was renew a couple of domains, and I was looking for an alternative to the widely hated Network Solutions. After finding Verio to be a scam (check complaints with the BBB), I turned to Dotster. I registered a domain with them last ...

Pros: fast, cheap, quick response from support, forwarding
Cons: it's so easy you'll want to buy 100 domains :)

I found Dotster by accident about 6 months ago. Prior to this date the only registrar I had used was Network Solutions [don't even get me started on them, they're a nightmare]. At first I did all the research, made sure my domain name would really be...

Pros: none
Cons: none

I tried out Dotster and it was really good. I built my website on dotster and I think that it is the best place where you can set up your domain name and make a .com, .net, and .org web sites at discount prices that are affordable. It really is the best...

Pros: Many online features, easy-to-use interface.
Cons: No customer response, long delays (up to "never") in establishing certain features.

I registered my first domain with Dotster a couple of years ago. Last year, I asked to establish an email account, to be used for "hiding" my ISP userid. I just wanted to be able to change providers without having to notify my two hundred regular...

Pros: Inexpensive, easy to use
Cons: None that I notice!

Over the last year, I have purchased several domain names for the Internet. I have used 3 different Registrars, and I think that Dotster is by far the best choice I have made.

I feel that domain name registration is pretty much a commodity...

Pros: Cheap, good customer service
Cons: Sometimes reports available names as taken

I've tried Network Solutions, Register.com and Gandi, but I think I like Dotster the best. Their prices are good ($15/year) and their website is usable and powerful.

The customer service is top-notch, since I always get help within a few...

Pros: nice control panel, quite good pricing
Cons: pricing could be better like godaddy, no phone support no.

Dotster is primarily a domain name registration company, however that isn't the only service they offer. They also offer an Affiliate program that lets other sites have a registration link for domains and receive comission on domains registered through...
