Question Buying domain names...

[Scouse]

Simple question: Who's good?

 

[inactionman]

[dysfunction]

cPanel Hosting, Domain Name Registration, Virtual and Dedicated Servers - Vidahost Fast UK Web Hosting

 

[Scouse]

Ta for those. Want email routing thrown in and don't want to pay more than a few quid a year.

How are UK2.net?


Oooh, forum fuckups here...

 

[dysfunction]

Vidahost have free e-mail forwarding...

No idea about UK2.net

I offer no comment on buying a domain name........

I use Dotster

I use 123-reg | Domain names | Domain name registration - but not because they are good, it is just force of habbit I've been using them for well over 10 years and its easier to look after a lot of domain names in the same place.

Yep, my company web site and e-mails are with 123-reg, they seem ok, never had a problem

Just bought one from the one Dys recommended, ta tho

ukreg are reasonable.

Bit late for Scouse but I second gandi.net (had mine with them for over 10 years, no hassle, no unexpected transfers etc.). 123reg have started insisting on continuous payment authority (CPA) for new accounts, which is a *very bad thing*:

Dunno about existing customers.

They haven't with me - I've had an account with them for years. I have no real attatchment to them as I said, it is just a case of when you have two or three domains with them, it is easy to just use them for others. They have a terrible website though which hasn't changed in over a decade as far as I can tell lol.

CPanelX still good? Need to buy a domain for a portfolio site im making.

Cheers

More info - Doesn't need e-mail hosting, just enough space to hold example of my work and a .co.uk or .com domain.

Domain names | Domain name registration | 123-reg

Have a sale on so you can grab a cheap domain, but I don't know if the trouble mentioned above has been sorted.

 

[Aoami]

Would you use 123-reg for hosting as well? Or are there better hosting companies about?

 

[Aoami]

Anyone used MDDHosting - Professional Hosting Solutions - Shared Hosting ? The reviews seem positive and it's pretty cheap.

 

[caLLous]

You can do it all with Vidahost.

 

[MYstIC G]

Used both 123-reg & ukreg for domains before with no problems.

 

[Aoami]

went with MDDHosting after reading many good reviews, I will come back with a review after trying it for a bit.
