There are so many registars for Domain Names.
They all have to abide by the ICANN regulations, so in that regard you are fairly safe. The only point I would raise is the observation from the previous page.
"Be careful when a free internet domain name is included with a hosting package. Make sure the internet domain name is being registered to YOU. We mean the WHOIS registration. If YOUR information isn't in the WHOIS registration then you don’t own or control that domain name, even if you paid for it."
One other point to consider is Domain Name Management. It is far easier to manage your domains, especially if you have a few, through one registrar.
Can you imagine changing your webhost and having to redirect all your domains at diifernt registrars? What a nightmare.
What about domain renewal time? What a hassle.
Price is certainly the primary choice factor. One other point to consider is features they may offer. I found that the people at
offer a Free "WhoisGaurd" Cover. That will stop anyone from seeing who owns the Domain Name. I like it!
So, we recommend purchasing a domain name from
The best domain host is the one who proves to be the most compliant one too. This kind of conclusion can come from the web server software as well. In any case, even a cheap web hosting can be continued with, if it can hold the current web design. In some cases the internet phone service often has a problem in going up on a certain web site design. When such issues occur, the hosting service should be given up. These are the basics of advertising.
It makes sense to have them all registered at one place, it certainly makes management easier. After you register your domain name all you need to do is point your DNS to your hosting company. If you aren't sure how to change that a tutorial is available at Hostgator.
