does anyone know anything about domain name pricing? on hover the domain i want is listed for $30/yr; on namecheap it's $2.88/yr. as far as i know, both services provide WHOIS privacy for free. so, is there any significant difference in what i'd get from one vs the other?
@typhlosion Not really! It depends, sometimes they offer additional services for that cost, like free email. Be careful though, that namecheap price MIGHT be the first year price only, make sure to check that it's not a sale price.
@typhlosion @ceralor moving domain out of namecheap cost money too.
They charge for changing the tag (might not be the case for the domain you want)
@kyzh @typhlosion Changing the tag?
@kyzh Ah looks like it only applies to uk-related TLDs, that explains why I had not heard of this yet, derp.
@ceralor all good (sorry ive been too lazy to explain directly)
@typhlosion For the renewals as well? Not bad then; they offer basic DNS services (standard A/AAAA/TXT/CNAME/MX/etc records) as part of that at least, so if that's all you need, or you'll be using nameservers elsewhere, they're a solid choice.
