After you put in the domains that you want for the low low price – they kind of threaten you by saying now all your private information is going to be waving in the breeze on the Internet. And of course they then offer you a solution to your dilemma – at still more cost. So a few questions.. if you register with other registrar will they keep your information private at no extra charge? Or do they all require extra fees to keep your name and address etc private? And lastly – how are godaddy’s fees compared to other registrars if you compare both their basic domain name service and their premium “keep your address etc private” service??

Ive been having issues with Yahoo’s domain service. Basically, i changed my nameservers to use my own host rather than Yahoo, and i also set up my MX records and a CNAME to use Google Apps with my domain. I just called yahoo small business again, and i got the runaround. i am being told the following

- I am told that If i change my nameservers to point to anywhere but yahoo, (such as ns1.8tt.org), any changes i make to the MX records and CNAMES through Yahoo will not work.

- The supervisor told me that they lose the ability to update and control my DNS records when i use a host other than Yahoo.

- They told me i need to contact my HOST and have them set up the DNS for me.

Now it was my understanding that I could point my nameservers to any host, and still control my DNS through the registrar. Am i wrong, or is this just a complete load of crap? I know that in the past i have done this exact thing with other registrars with no trouble whatsoever

No, I’m not crazy – I’m writing an article

There are a lot of registrars that charge around $10, or free with purchase. But who has the MOST EXPENSIVE domain registration on the net? And I’m not talking about pre-registered domains.

Thanks
