The Best DotTel Registrar? I would be interested in forum users views of the best DotTel Registrar thay have found. I appreciate "best" is a very subjective term but my key criteria are: - ease of transfer on a sale (does the control panel allow unlocking and give you the authorisation code for your dottel domain) - competitive price - quality of support. Thanks in anticipation. Mike Seaton |
in my option i would go the following about them. - ease of transfer on a sale (does the control panel allow unlocking and give you the authorisation code for your dottel domain) Name.com - competitive price Dynadot.com - quality of support.never had any problem with any but i can say DomainMonster.com is the best in support |
Must be honest Never had any problem with any of my domains ( Fingers Crossed ) I also like domain monster as they are very helpful. I also use 123reg for lots of my domains to Regards Gav |
. I recommend: http://www.1awww.com/ This ISP is located in Spain, and the client service is done by Mr. Detlef Bracker (German, English and Spanish speaking). The data centre, respectively, the sponsoring registrar, is at the company 1API in Germany: http://www.1api.de/ This ISP is ideal for resellers and domainers with big domain portfolios.

I find domainmonster works very well. |
name.com, especially at $9.99 again this year. I've had a couple of issues with domains not being properly created within their zones, but they were fairly quick to resolve issues between telnic and themselves. They have ability to maintain different accounts within CTH to organize domains. Mark |

i m so Glad Name.com Domainmonster.com Dynadot.com are ahead all :) Name.com the best as mark said different cth accounts, lets say you have a domain you dont want to sell neither develop but rent it out so you don't have to fear with your other .tel being disturbed just make a different cth and let them manage their own at any point you feel they are not making good use of the domain or not paying you just transfer the domain back and delete the cth |

Isn't Moniker part of the same company as SnapNames? I was looking to transfer my .tels to Name.com, but they aren't accepting transfers yet. :([/size] |
Telme, i would advice you to move your domain to Dynadot.com its just 10.99 / yr no hidden fees and takes 4-6 days to transfer. incase you want the concerned persons name in moniker i will let you know by pm i have shifted over 7 names from there :) Shahid |
I recently moved all of my 35 domain names to Webnames.ca. My boss who has one of the larger collections in North America recommended that I talk to their support staff because they offer the most competitve pricing for people that want to grow their collections. The more domains you order or transfer to them the better of a deal they will give you over time. Secondly, the support is second to none in my opinion. Finally, the most important thing to me is the fact that these guys know .tel very well and will can log you into your dot tel account from their main account page. Beware of some of the other competitors when it comes to hooking up Google Apps as they won't allow you to do that. For those of you that don't know what the advantage of Google Apps can bring, among many things, it can allow you to tie a whole messanging center to you .tel domain name with up to 50 emails for free. For example RonMunson@VancouverDining.tel etc. Webnames offer this as a free solution by altering the MX records of the domain right from their control panel. The fact that I couldn't hook this up with my last company is why I ended up moving it all of my names to them. |
Nothing beats Name.com

Now at name.com prices for TEL domain are $9.99 for the first year; but renewing for a domain will be 14.95 - as they say. It seems that Dynadot gives better offer for TEL domain: $10.99 for each year. Also, if you put $500 to your account there, then the price will be $9.50 per year for a domain. |
As i stated earlier, every registrar has their own benefits But as i said i would name the best for transfers is Dynadot and the best for first or multiple year is name.com and domainmonster is good too :) you have to know Name.com has seprate CTH which is better then any registrar in more then one lets say i own LuxuryApartments.tel and i lease to some one all i have to do is make a seprate cth account and give him use name and password of telhosting. once i his term gets over or in any way we dont have a good understand i just remove my domain from that telhosting and shift it to my normal one and delete the account :) Shahid |

Webnames does the same with child accounts. If you have volume like you have Shahid, call them up and ask them if they can do better then Dynadot. I know my boss always tells me that every one dollar he saves on domain names saves him thousands per year and he was the one that introduced me to Webnames. :eek:[/size] |

Thank you for suggestion, i will look into it but then again i still like name.com the best i hope they reduce their prices for renewals as i have 185 there. your boss seems like a smart man, i believe in the same strategy. Lets say i was to renew my 200 else where name.com ( 200x14.95 = 2,990/- ) dynadot.com ( 200x10.95 = 2,190/- ) ( but someone stated if you add 500 you can get a price of 9.50 ( 200x9.50 = 1,900/- ) Domainmonster ( 200x9.99 = 1,998 ) so here i am left with 2 options either to convince name.com to reduce prices or i move them to dynadot or domain monster. Saving almost 1000 US$ is good becoz it can renew 100 of my domains again for 1 yr so when you play with volume one should play it smart or else one can easily lose out[/size] |
For those interested in name.com and for those who are name.com customers become fan of name.com here https://www.facebook.com/pages/Namecom/40529942806 and grab the weekly and regular promo offers. If you have lot domains you can ask for discounts (I have seen some of them asking for such discounts and received them. So why not try?) |
