I need to register a domain, so just need help keeping the costs down.
I've found a site, telivo.com, that will do a ".org" domain for £15 for two years and this seems to be the cheapest but does anyone know a cheaper site than this? |

Try here:
http://www.ukreg.com/ I use them all the time. Edit: Actually I'm not sure they're cheaper as £15 for two years is very cheap for a top level domain. . |

It is a lot cheaper if you can use a .co.uk. I normally use 123-reg where it cost 2.59/year.
I also use free dns services from afraid.org. Then again costs TLDs are a lot lower than when I had to buy from network solutions years ago. Your telivo provider is very cheap for two years. One word of caution. Years ago I had a domain registered through a tag holder who started playing silly devils. charged my credit card 3 time in 6 months, refused to answer mail. charges were made just as statements were issued. It was then 6 weeks after the transaction date before it appeared on my statement and getting card company to respond was difficult as this company no longer answered phones/mail etc. so eventually had to go to nominet as they would not release my domain to a new holder etc. Nominet is very bureaucratic. So make sure the registrar you use trustable and likely to be here for the duration.

One and One are a swine if you want to move your domain and offer email-only support.

Thanks guys.
The UK versions have already been registered and so I have to go for something like ".org". telivo.com is £15 +VAT so really it works out to £17.63, that's still less than everyone else though by a few quid. oneandone.com seem extremely cheap at only $5.99 a year for a ".org" but on further investigation you find that's only available to US and Canadian residents, if you go to their UK website, www.1and1.co.uk, you have to pay £8.89 +VAT, that's a bit of a joke isn't it? |

Ah what you forget is that seven or eight years ago the price would have been closer to ten times what they're asking now, so it's pretty cheap by comparison.

I can do your top level domains at £14.98 + VAT for two years if you want?
(.org, .com, .net etc) I actually feel as if I have something to contribute at last! I'm waiting to sort out some finances , get a house, blah blah blah before I can get my SV. Wont be long though I hope. Then I should be able to relate to the things that are posted here. Yay. Failing that, I'll just post useless crap everywhere ![]() |
