Details please. I can't find a current promotion for Yahoo.

 
When I signed up for a domain at Yahoo I was disgusted to learn that they don't allow you to change the DNS settings, you're allowed to forward the domain and whatnot but you don't get anywhere near the level of control you'd expect from your provider. I don't know if thats changed at all or not recently, however.

I would rather sign up for namecheap because they have free whois protection for 1 year I believe.

I agree with this point. The whois protection is worth the extra few bucks that namecheap charges. 🙂
 
"they don't allow you to change the DNS settings"

Not true- they have a domain control panel that lets you change your nameserver. You do have to unlock the domain in the control panel.

I have 3 domains I got at the last $1.99 sale they had, and I actually prefer their control panel over the one at GoDaddy, partially because I can use my existing Yahoo ID to access.

He means you can't edit DNS settings when using Yahoo's nameservers. In other words, if you want to have control over DNS, you have to use an outside service and point your nameserver there instead.
 
cheap does not mean better... i wont register anywhere but godaddy

anway, use coupon code CANDY to save another $1

it only works per order... so if you need to buy a bunch of domains, do it one by one
