I used to use Yahoo Domains and they were good. I still have 2 domains under them, they were never that cheap before but just as good as Registerfly (which I use for 99% of my domains)
Antoine, I like them, I have 15 domains registered with them…..also before they had a sale a few months back for 1.98$/domain! which was even crazier…so yeah, there doesnt seem to be any catches to me!

Maybe there arent any “catches” now, but there has to be something planned down the road – at that price they are losing money unless they have gotten some super deal in place that is unheard of to any other domain provider.
Maybe I’m misinformed, but that cost is below the lowest wholesale bulk buy rate I’ve ever heard of.
My uneducated guess….
They are using the domain registration as a ‘loss leader’ for their other services.
When your domain is up do they give you it for the same price? or do they jack the price up… if they do thats where they make the money. trying to get the first timers in most of them will renew. but even then its still a good deal. its like invetsing for them cos they know there going to get more out of it in the future. thats the only thing i can think of :shakebutt :hitthefan
