Don't switch to yahoo domains

[Masetek]

I just went to purchase my 5th domain with yahoo and was informed that I am no longer elligable for discounted domains. Guess I should have read the fine print. The usual price is $9.95/year.

I thought there might be something like that. Figured Yahoo was catering to the small time personal user rather than businesses

Oh my god.

Can we "cancel" ?

You still get the domains you purchased at the discounted price (i did mine for 5 years) but it just wont let you register any more at $2.95/year

I did mine for 5 years, too.
I knew they had this, but couldn't find that find print for the other thread and therefore thought that they'd removed it.

Personaly, I would rather pay $3-$4 more per-domain and have them all in one spot with an excellant control panel like I have at enom.

I hate moving domains, and worrying about which one is where etc.

Same here. I'm in the process of getting all mine moved to NameCheap. I have some at Enom and some at NameCheap right now.

Still, if you have a large number of domains couldn't you save a lot of money by registering or renewing all of your domains for 5 years at Yahoo during the discount period and then transferring them back to your prefered registrar?

[Masetek]

Well I still got 4 good domains for 5 years, so it's all good. I'll just go back to namecheap now
