Recomend Domain Registrar Service?

Hi,
I have asked this question before unfortunately I did not print out the info and had to wipe out my HDD - but I need Cost Recommendation for Domain Registrar Service. I paid too much $17 per Domain Name the first time around.
Thanks All

Try Dotster - $14.95

or

Try Go Daddy - $8.95

I have used Dotster before with no problems. I haven't used Godaddy but have heard good things about them.

$14.95 /yr on yourdomainforfree.com , I've used the Qwho.com and enameco.com

impeccable service for both, but the rates seem higher than I used them before.

http://www.domainsnext.com/ has it cheap $9.50
http://active-domain.com/ has it at $11.xx

Word of caution, these are just suggestions, dont be stuck with a bottom feeder of a registrar, not worth it. Choose one with a good web based control panel 24/7 support and good customer service. There are hidden ins and outs of domain registration that you need to understand. Also it isnt necessary that when ur domain comes up for renewal you will get it at the same rate, and letting them release your domain name is a tricky proposition for most unscrupulous registrars

$14.95 to ONLY register. If you sign up for a hosting plan then the registration is free, as the name implies.

I guess the point is that there are some good domain registars to use. There is also a domaiNS registar that you should avoid like the plague. I will not mention them by name though.
