Domain Registrar

[jay20aiii]

Hi all,

I am looking for recommendations for cheap .co.uk domain registrars.

I'm currently using Fasthosts which is £12.59 for a 1 year renewal and considering CrazyDomains which is £6.95 for the same. I have 32 domains so seems silly to be paying out so much per year. The e-mail, hosting and DNS is all managed elsewhere so I just need basic simple domain registration.

Thanks
Jay

Over the last year or so I've moved all my domains into NameCheap, from memory I think a .co.uk is about £6.50/year.

No complaints about NameCheap. Some TLD's need manual intervention from them to enable DNSSEC (I'm fairly sure .co.uk is one of them) but they'll do it over the live chat in a couple of minutes.

I use Namecheap but Porkbun are also very well rated.

I've transferred most of my active domains from Namecheap to Porkbun. I'm pretty pleased I did as Porkbun has been excellent. I don't have any complaints about Namecheap either though. I just wanted all of my business domains to be in the same account.

I have 32 domains

Do you use all of the domains or are you keeping them so that one day someone might buy it off you for silly money?

We moved all our domains to 20i

They all belong to me, friends and family. I'm not a fan of squatting - there are a few domains out there that I would like to buy for myself that are being abused by others for that very reason.

Thanks for all of the suggestions. In the end I stumbled across Netistrar which, interestingly, is being used by Krystal too: https://krystal.uk/domain-names/netistrar-migration.
