Is anyone else pulling out of Moniker?

So I'm not as big of a domain owner as I use to be, I use to have over 300 domains at Moniker and have sold many of those or let some expire. I feel that this is good business for Moniker as I have gotten them at least 20-30 new customers paying their full asking price.

Lately their site keeps loading slow or having issues as it is no longer hosted at RackSpace. Now all of their nameservers for dns hosting are all in the same location (it use to be distributed like enom). Their support is slow and doesn't seem to be very helpful. My account rep is a ghost and hasn't contacted me like I was promised.

Needless to say I have started pulling the last 55 domains I have with them over to other accounts at namecheap/dynadot.

Can anyone else recommend a registrar that actually cares about their customers?

No one said it had anything to do with best registrar. I am just saying the fact is that they are losing a lot of domains. Tucows are doing great because a lot of hosts resell domains from Tucows and, as you can see from the stats, a lot of people register domains with their host. Thats why a lot of those registrar that domainers dont use have so many domains.

I disagree with how you guys are viewing the stats.

1. The registrarstats.com year-to-year for Moniker shows a loss of 38,723 domains. That's -1.4%. Doesn't seem like a lot to me.

2. Part of the reason Tucows' numbers are going up is because they're now including domains from their ItsYourDomain acquisition.
