I am just about to Register a Domain, but I do not know which company is better? GoDaddy or Yahoo?

I heard that Godaddy want to sell, sell, sell their products...and that although it is cheaper than other hosting services like Yahoo....it lacks quality....Is this true, or are people just hatting on GoDaddy?

im using godaddy, and its great and easy to use, it doesnt get any better, if your looking to buy a domain name, you can buy it from anywhere, diff. places = diff. prices but godaddy is def. one of the cheapest places, and i just bought hosting from godaddy and wow, it showed me step by step directions on how to set up my hosting account, could not be easier beleive me.

GoDaddy is good for newbies. I also use HostGator, which is very good hosting at a good price too. I have a server at The Planet, which also works well. This forum is on it.

aspkin how many websites do you currently have?
well ecommerce websites?

**aspkin** · #8 05-26-2008

I have a whole bunch of different websites; they all make me money one way or another. Total I probably have around 75 sites. Right now I'm in the process of creating about 10 more affiliate sites. I'm uploading files and configuring databases now.

Your up there where I'm at. I had to sell most of them. I couldn't manage all of them/ sometimes having too many will hold you down

Yeah, you just have to be really organized or you'll never get anything done. Excel does wonders.

2eXclusiive · #11 05-27-2008

=O
how do you get people to use your affliate websites aspkin?
i know some websites offer ps3,plasma tv,...etc. for signing up for one offer and reffering like 10 people to sign up with their website and complete an offer, is that what you do?

also why dont you sell all those websites, you'll probably get atleast $1,000,000.00 for them and then you can create one huge website that has an incredible cash flow...
i don't know im just throwing some ideas at you.

Domain name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

its simple domain name is a websites url for ex: eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices is a domain name, the link that greenbean provided it great.

**aspkin** · #16 05-28-2008

aspkin.com is one of my many domain names. It's just the site name. You can buy a domain from places like Godaddy.com.

2eXclusiive · #18 05-28-2008

I have used allot of different ones, godaddy is easier then most. The only thing you have to watch is there contracts that are kinda hidden.

I have sold many website names and sites I created with godaddy, it was simple to set up and transfer etc.

Im thinking of using HostMonster, anyone use them?

I used GoDaddy years ago and didn't really have any problems but I thought it was expensive after I added everything. HostMonster has some good reveiws on the net and includes everything in one package.
