I went through GoDaddy at first, probably because they’re the most advertised and everyone knows about them. They charge an arm and a leg for domain privacy. Not only that, but registering the domain itself really isn’t that cheap.
Then I moved on to NameCheap where I have ExtremeTechie and a few others. I thought that was a great deal, only about $10 for a domain and free whoisguard. I was pretty satisfied with it. Yet again, after more research I found there was an even cheaper domain service. I’m speaking of Internet.bs. My first order I bought 3 domains for only $15! Two .com’s and one .net. They all came with whois protection for free.
I will now be using Internet.bs as my main place to buy domains. Everything went really smooth, and it works just as well as namecheap or GoDaddy. I actually can’t stand GoDaddy anymore, I’ll never buy another domain from them. I may use NameCheap again though. They are a good domain provider, no doubt about it. Internet.bs just goes above only charging $5 or less sometimes for domains WITH whois protection. I don’t think any provider can really beat those prices.
You may wonder why I need so many domains, I need them for landing pages in my PPC campaigns.
I’ve always used Enom and never had a prob.

Not so much that I had any problems with the domain registrars. Just seems like Internet.bs is very cheap from the start, offers free whois protection, and has a decent interface unlike GoDaddy.
Since I am buying quite a few domains, being cheap from the start is a plus
Great tip, thanks! I’d not heard of NameCheap or Internet.bs before. I quit GoDaddy, too, after paying through the nose. I’ve been using eNom ($10 w/free provacy, but it’s through Google which I don’t like). I’ll have to check out the others.
