(1) List of top domain name registrars according to Wikipedia.
We’re with BlueHost right now. We have a web hosting plan with them and most of our domain names are registered with them. (We do have a few .info domain names registered with GoDaddy)
But, eventually we’re going to have to renew, so we’re always keeping an eye on the market. (Especially now, given that Bluehost no longer offers free privacy domain registration. Read why we like domain registration privacy.) Deals come and go, good web hosts become bad ones. Who knows. If a good deal comes up, we might transfer our domain names over.
We’ve posted our domain name research here. The list is growing and we try to update it every month. Remember: You usually can’t get a refund on a domain name – so it’s buyer beware!
