![]() | One Year Domain Registration ($3.99 Total) Two Year Domain Registration ($12.98 Total) Three Year Domain Registration ($21.97 Total) is that kind of weird? if you register for 2 years, the price is 6.49/yr if you register for 3 years, the price is 7.33/yr ????????????????????????????? |

![]() ![]() ![]() | well, the 3.99 for the first/one year is a lose leader, they are just not willing to carry it for multi-years.

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | They're making the first year price low and the others higher and higher to make profit. That's their way of making alot of money. 1st one costs low, so others would get 2 year or 3 year registration thinking the price would be low. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Available domain management tools, not just price, is an important consideration when choosing where to register/manage your domains. I can't begin to tell you how many people I've run across who've been disappointed with their lowest price registrars.

![]() ![]() ![]() | The first year for the domain sounds awesome, in such a case I would register the domain then move it to another registar such as RegisterFly which offer an extra year when you transfer to them. It makes sense then really. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Re: Cheapest registrar $3.99 I looked to check them out earlier but haven't registered anything yet.. alot sell at a "loss" yet tag on things like hosting, etc. to make up for it (like iregistrations) so make sure you pay attention to any checked boxes and read the TOS beforehand. Some of these guys, you play heck trying to get them transferred back out of there too. Dave

![]() | I would spend a little extra and go with a reputable registrar. I am sure we will see many of these "loss leaders" popping up as many hosting companies try to increase their sales/market share.

| To prevent the idea that Im self promoting we offer similiar low pricing and our decision to do such was based on the idea that most others who did such cheap domain registrations lacked in service and support. I wouldn't be suprised if we get more registrations through us per day than DomainsAreFree and I can only place our success on our service and support. |
