Hostway Domains

[Raf]

Has anyone ever purchased any domains from Hostway.com? I'm planning on getting a couple of domains there but I thought I would get some feedback from you guys. How is the support or management of the domains? Do you really get full control of the domain you purchase there?

Please post your comments about this company here. Thanks again.

Never, ever ever ever buy your domains from a web hosting company. Hostway, however, is excellent.

Oh okay, so maybe buying from them isn't the best idea. Thanks for sharing your comments guys, really appreciate it. :tu:

Hostway has been a great company for me... Easy transfers out, easy registrations, and they even accept paypal.

Only thing they do not have is instant transfer of domains within their systems, and you cannot create an account without any domains in it.

He encourages Hostway, not discourage. I'd give it a try.

So basically what is the main problem with buying domains at Hostway?

For the most part Raf - If they change hands - Someone is going to pay a transfer fee.
As far as their Domain Services go ..... They seem fine to me - Have several there now

Oh okay, the company looks pretty professional and their prices are pretty good for domains. Thanks for all your feedback guys, I really appreciate it.
