uk-cheapest domain registration (poor service)
by Administrator on Jul.02, 2009, under Uncategorized
I bought a domain registration with uk-cheapest which comes with a free homepage.
The idea was if it took off i would upgrade to a whole package.unfortunately after three weeks(for unknown reason) my page went off line(downtime).uk-cheapest has only one form of contact.No address and no phone number just direct contact from their website. I wouldnt mind this way but i have sent four different messages on different days with no reply.I suspect this company only has one full time worker(colin) who is probably on holiday as i write this.

I recently bought a domain registration from 123-reg.com, it was £5.99 for two years, this seemed very fair to me. However they do not tell you until you have paid that you have to choose from their very limited layouts and backgrounds, this means that my website is not actually controlled by me, you can get more but for extra cost. I suppose it is right when they say you get what you pay for.

As Cameron said, 123-reg really seem to be the best for buying the actual domain name. In my case we had hosting elsewhere so we didn’t have to use their sitebuilder tool.
Good luck with your site!
