There are so many of them, and they seem to all be plugging $10 rates! Who do you guys use?

NameCheap.com you get more features then GoDaddy.com offers and it's a whopping 90 cents or so more expensive.

i used dixiesys for both. why screw around for 5 bucks. i think they're 12 or 15. if you're going to host with them, may as well just get th ename to make it easier imo.

yes, i think Gary is a nice guy. I don't mind paying 5 or 6 bucks more one time when i'm paying 3.95 a month for hosting TWO sites. I mean thats already a good deal.
