Yes Everyone is going to assume that any .info's were Free one's now - and think they shouldn't have to pay as much - I've got News for them though ...
They will Pay if they want them !

I haven't ever received any spam e-mail since the time I've registered my free .info domains, I guess you got spam because you used namesecure.

I sure am glad I'm not in the middle of a big sale that requires a domainsite push...could be days...or longer as someone was saying they were doing this for Sept. They can't handle what they have now!. I got to checkout 5 times today only to have it #$@!& crash on me. Keep on tryin' I guess. My guess is they have to kill it. People that have paid real money for domains aren't able to log in to do what they have PAID to do. That would pi** me off!

Just my 2 dimes & a nickels worth

I have a few domains that don't resolve anymore, and no email coming in either, because the nameservers are all set at domainsite's. They have been inaccessible for close to 24 hours already.

Gee thanks, domainsite!
