$4.86 domain trick for Godaddy
After compiling several source, I was able to reg/renew my domain names at godaddy for $4.86 per year per domain.
The catch is: You will need to own 7 domain names or more to benefit from this
This is how i do it:
Quote:
Purchase a dedicated IP $2.95/mo (min. 2months) ----> $5.90
Reg/renew a domain --------------------------------> $1.99
Apply 10% discount: SAVE10
Total ----------------------------------------------->$7.55
Then login to your account, go to my account, under the section customer info and more, Click on payments and renewing items. Select Dedicated IP and renew it.
In your cart, update the renewal term to 7months and add in your 7 reg/renew domain into the cart
Quote:
Dedicated IP --------------------------------------> $20.65
7 domain ($1.99 each) -----------------------------> $13.93
Apply $5 off $30 purchase: Usa5(or6)
Total ----------------------------------------------> $31.33
So it round up at $4.86 per domain per year for me Ofcourse you can repeat the renew IP trick to get even lower overall price for your domain.
You can try this out.
P/s: In case you have done the final steps but didnt see a $5 off discount, then you will need to do the following:

.COM bulk SKUs look like this: .COM Bulk Domain Name Registration (6-20)* Sku: 966-1 Domain
and for renewals it reads: .COM Bulk Domain Name Renewal (6-20)* Sku: 968-1 Domain
I just registered 7 NEW dot-com domains + 8 renewal dot-com domains (no .net, .org, .info -- so I cant be sure those work). Plus the 16 Dedicated IP months @ 2.95 per month. Sub total was 80.80 and the $20 off $75 brought it down to 60.80. 60.80 for 15 domains is $4.05333333333333
What has to be done is, this is painful, load one domain at a time into the shopping cart (for NEW domains) and then for renewals you will have to go into "my domain names" from the menu and reverse-sort by "expires on" (or just choose ONE domain to renew). Make sure its for 1 year only and do a Quick Checkout.
DO NOT click on the Renew (free email) link on the drop-down menu. It will generate a BULK renewal item, even if only one domain is selected, into the cart.
When you get to the cart the SKUs should not say "bulk" anywhere. The correct SKU for NEW .COM names should be 101-1 and for renewals it should be 10101-1.
In order to force this, I started from this URL which already includes the coupon code but removes the BULK parameter (which I believe puts the session into some bulk-mode forcing the SKU's to read differently and thus the coupon to ignore them). The link is:
https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/?pro...&isc=gdh0103plc
This should also work for all other coupons that we've seen change over the past couple of days. It was quite tedious but it worked again! Now if I can only get it to NOT ignore the ICANN fee, that would be even better!!!
Heh ... this is a long thread. But anyway, hope that I can save you some bucks
