Now who doesn't wants to save some money.

Everyone wants cheap products and better services.

Same thing goes for the domain names. When people buy domain names they always look to buy them at cheaper rates so that they can save some dollars to invest it somewhere else.

There are some pros and cons of this.

Let me first of all list some of the benefits of buying a cheap domain name.

- You can save money.

Is there any other benefit that I am forgetting over here? There is only one benefit in buying a cheaper domain name and that is that it can save you some dollars. If you are planning to buy domains in bulk then most of the registrars also give bulk discount.

Lets take an example for an average person.

He or she is not interested in registering 100's of domain names. They only want one domain name for their company.

So they can surely afford to pay a dollar or two extra for better services provided by the costly domain name registrars.

On the other hand for the domain resellers and other domainers. If they are registering 100 domain names at one time they are already getting a bulk discount. Moreover they want their domains to be at a place which can provide them better customer support, Free push to another account, etc.

It might save 50 to 100 dollars when it comes to a large number of domain name registrations but then some things are surely sacrificed.

So choose wisely if you want to buy a cheap domain name or want to get a better customer support and features.

I have even seen some registrars charging more compared to the others and then also not delivering proper services.

Also when you have to renew your domain name the next year they charge a load of money. Sometimes the figures are unbelievable.

I have had a domain name registered back in 2003 and at that time I was new in the domain name game. Now I am stuck with that domain and he is charging me $22 per year for renewing a .com which other registrars renew it for $7 to $8 per year.

I have transferred that domain name out of that registrar and now I feel safe and happy to at last get out of that place.

So just watch out before you just register a domain name for cheaper prices. Because every time it might not be a good deal for you.
