I have used Moniker.com since I started investing in domains 18 years ago. They were called Domain Systems then. I chose them at the time because they gave me a break when I bulk registered names. They don't do that anymore, but the service has been great, I have never had any problems with them. I also use Register4Less.com if I need hosting, because they give free hosting with each domain registration. It's not very big, but good enough for many needs. Like a lot of others, I have had all kinds of problems with GoDaddy, so I don't use them anymore -- except for the odd time I want to backorder something. Every time I have backordered a domain with them I have always gotten it. They seem to have an edge over anybody else who is trying to grab some of those expired names.
