Domain Name Registration
Who do you use and why?
So far I've been using Directnic but I've heard good things about namecheap. Anyone with information please do share.
Also how long do you register domains for if you don't have a plan for them quite yet?
Thanks! ![Smilie](images/smilies/smile.gif)

G'day Sweet
I am using namecheap. Cause they answered an email that I once sent to them
that said something like .. Hi, how are you? And they replied with a welcome and
then we replied a few more emails before I asked questions about domains.
I also lost my godady account some weird thing. I will not go into that.
I just set them to 1 year, but many years ago i had been with dotster where i would
register them for 2 years.
Have a great domain register kind of day Mate!

I use Directnic for everything. I know I'm paying a few dollars more per domain, but I think it's because I have a sense of trust with them. I also know one of the owners.
My more "valuable" domains I register for at least two years at a time, while the domains I'm speculating about get one year at a time.

Directni.com since 1997. Not a single problem. Cheap domains. Fast configuration changes (Nameservers, etc) I just plain love 'em

I wouldn't say they're cheap but they are everything else that you said. The only reason I'm thinking of using namecheap is because of the cost. Otherwise I would go with Directnic no contest.

another question just sprung to mind:
If a domain is unregistered can it possibly have a PR ranking?
If so, is there any way to find its PR ranking?

I don't think so sweet.
The PR ranking works by spidering the domain once it has a page up and live on the net.
If the domain has a PR ranking before that happens it must be from a former owner who let the domain expire.
