Best domain registrars

I have quite a few domains and have been using many registrars over the years.

For .co.uk I recommend http://www.ukreg.com. They are one of the cheapest (123-reg has a poor interface and don’t take paypal).

For .com ($8.88 http://www.namecheap.com ($8.88 you can get $1 off with a coupon or http://www.godaddy.com  (about the same or $6.95 +22cent ican fee with a coupon).  Renewals can be a pain in the ass as godaddy or namecheap don’t tend to give discounts. One trick I have used is to transfer domains between the two at a discounted rate and register the domain for a long period of time at the discounted rate. For example I transfereed a domain from namecheap (8.88 renewal fee) to godaddy (6.95 transfer fee) and registered the domain for 5 years saving me about $5.

For .info I use godaddy but there $10.22 renewal fee is a rip off. I am looking for a cheap renewal fee for .infos if anyone has any suggestions, please comment.

For .net www.moniker.com $5.49 an average interface but the 5.49 renewal and registration fee is the best about and they have a good reputation.

Go to domainnamecoupons.com or dncoupons.com to get discount vouchers for domains.
