I spent many hours talking to the speakers and exchanging ideas, and the cast was great as well.

I’m going to see a lot of them this weekend at Big Seminar.

If there is anyplace both old and new webmasters throw money away it has to be with their Domain Registrar. I’m still a webhost and many of my customers just don’t think about what they spend on domain registration each year.

Here’s a rule to go by.. If you’re paying more than $10 a year for domain registration you’re paying too much.

Every year I get customers who will tell me their domains aren’t coming up, and I see that they forgot to renew their domain registration.. I then see they are with a company like Network Solutions or DROA and they are paying $35 or $40 a year.

Once it expires it’s too late to transfer it. Registrars won’t let you within a couple weeks of expiration.

Who is my registrar? “GoDaddy.com

I’ve been with Godaddy for years and it’s saved me a fortune. Not only that, the aggravation it has saved me simply can’t be measured. Dealing with Network Solutions was a nightmare.

So please, if you’re paying more than $10 a year.. Switch over to GoDaddy.com

Make sure you know your nameservers, fill out the transfer request form, confirm the transfer request from your old registrar in a day or two and that’s it, your done.

Now I guarantee you that 100’s of people are going to read this post, say to themselves.. Yes, I have to do this before my registration expires.. And then, they’ll forget..

Do it now.. it will cost you less than $10.00, and it will be done.
