Re: [Nolug] Inexpensive Domain Name Registrations/DNS

Eddie,

Um, since you brought it up, why are you convinced that Network Solutions is
worth $35/year? What value do you perceive that paying them more gets you?

Heh, the reason I ask is because I am an OpenNic (http://opennic.unrated.net)
member, and we have had a number of discussions about this very issue. I'm
interested in what others think about NetSol.

Dave, many local companies try to charge up to $50/mo. for hosting. If you've
only paid $15 monthy, I'd say that was fair. I normally use he.net in
California for $10/mo. for 5MB, so $15 isn't out of line. I don't know much
about directnic (I haven't used them... yet, anyway). That said, now that I
have DSL, I am willing to host low- to medium-traffic sites on my stuff, for
cheap.
