Is there anything one should know before buying a domain? Is Godaddy's prices too good to be true?
Well for a start you should definitely know never to use GoDaddy or 1&1, the worst domain registrars in the business.
Try Gandi or NameCheap.

Too late now. Did I fuck up? What's wrong with it?

I asked this same question a month ago. Everyone said Namecheap instead of GoDaddy, but no one gave me a reason why.
Hopefully we get one now.

I saw it once here that some guy owned a few dank domain names (oneletter.com like k.com) on godaddy. Some fag tried to backmail him, he only wanted the one letter domain name. He didn't comply and the backmailer took all of his domain names by fucking with godaddy customer support somehow. They refused to even reply the guy's letters later.
I've got a couple godaddy domains.
They are fine, people just try to stick it to the man because they supported sopa but I don't give a fuck.

I used to have a domain with godaddy. expect the following
>price hike when you renew for the second year
>terrible slow web application
>constant email spam
>sales reps literally calling your fucking number so sell you shit
I am with namecheap now and I like it a lot more. prices are comparable.

Can one just switch once the year has passed?
4chan.org used to be 4chan.net.

Terrible customer support, if you search domains an don't buy them they could appear more expensive minutes later, hard to transfer to other dns providers.
NameCheap are bros
