.us .us "sale" at GoDaddy

[fonzie_007]

There has been some discussion lately that GoDaddy is strategically not promoting .us domains due to losing the contract for the .us database to Neustar. Interestingly, GD is currently running a "sale" on .us domains for $8.99/domain on their homepage.

Yes, but last year at this time (July 4) the sale was $5.99 if I remember correctly so is it really a sale?

They always have sales for all the different kinds of domains...however it could be due to the contract thing

That's why I used the term "sale".

.biz @ $14.99/yr is a real bargain as well :]

I hope they do a nice promotion for .us again on July 4th.

Yes, Now You Can Count On .US Promotion ...

I hope they do a nice promotion for .us again on July 4th.

When insiders like VPs at Godaddy start participating in .us TDNAM auctions and spending $3000+ for .us names, as was recently reported about Adam Dicker of Godaddy winning for himself spyware.us at TDNAM, that's the best "promotion" you could get. If true, then that's a REAL insider, scooping up .us name(s).

US is 12.99 now... so it seams they jack the price up and then call it a sale :o

.US names @ answerable.com - $5.99

All,

1 and 1 has a REAL SALE on .us for $2.99, best I can tell the promotion runs until the end of August and the limit is 25 names. I will probably take advantage of that and transfer 25 from Godaddy to them since Godaddy's sale really isnt a sale.

You are probably better off not going there. name.com is doing them for 5.99

1 and 1 is the worst domain service EVER. NEVER GO THERE EVER!
