Recommend a Good .com.au Registrar

Joshua Uebergang · 08-13-2008, 02:33 AM

My current registrar that I use is poopie:
Unable to Transfer Domain: Problems with Registrar

Not only that, but they don't sell .com.au domains. I'm searching google, and have found that .com.au domains are expensive, but that doesn't really matter as much to me as the help and quality of the registrar. And the best way to find this is asking here, for your guys' experience with com.au registrars, instead of following the lies so many faceless hosting companies use. Who is someone you highly recommend? Why?

I've just purchased my first .com.au from them. Their interface for managing domain names is superior to anything I've seen. Everything is easily available. Prices are half of what I've seen other companies offer.

Hi Joshua,

I use Hostess (Hostess - Cheap Web Hosting, Domains, eCommerce services) for all my .com.au domain regos these days. Hostess is actually owned by Net Registry (www.netregistry.com.au)...they're just a 'no frills' version.

The price at Hostess is the best I've found by far for .com.au domains - $25 for 2 years! Can't say anything about their customer service/support though as I've never had to use it but being part of Net Registry, I'd guess it would be pretty good.

Cheers

Rachel

I recommend Hostess as well. I've used them quite a bit for my .com.au's - the registration goes through within an hour usually.

On another note! Great to see some more Aussies on here! Get over to the thread (in my sig) and post an intro video to the forum. We need more Aussie representatives!

I use Net Registry but their interface is a bit chunky. The problem with all the registrars is lack of services.
