Hi greg. I paid $60 for my asmodean.net for 2 year registration from www.registrars.com. I pay $20 a year for nols.com who does dynamic dns updates that only take like 3 minutes at most to update. I got the nols.com account because at the time I had rr.com internet then earthlink.net dsl which is pppoe and so never had a static IP. Now when I converted to sprintion and now speakeasy.net I have static IP so don't really need nols.com but I paid for a year. When the year runs out I will not need dynamic dns but I still have to renew asmodean.net. There is another registrar I found www.dotregistrars.com which charge like $14 for a domain per year but I don't remember their packages. So there are two things you have to consider. 1 registering the domain so you have rights touse it and capabilities to use it. 2 finding a host for registered domain. Those are two different but commonly confused issues. If you read the services on nols.com's web page they do a good job of describing how it works in case I've confused the issue. Once my account with nols.com expires I will not renew since I have static IP addresses and will either host my own domain by registering my asmodean.net as dns servers or I'll have my domain hosted for free because of where I work. Only reason I went with nols.com was because of needing dynamic dns and because they are more reliable than free dynamic dns hosts. Best regards. -- Raul A.
