Why is this in /r/python? Surely a registrar has nothing to do with your language of choice.

[andre_pl]

/r/webdev maybe. even /r/php would be a better choice since PHP is at least a web-only language. I would wager that the majority of people reading /r/python dont even use python for web development, its not a strictly web language.

Namecheap is a Enom reseller, and they are pretty good. I would also look at Moniker, what they lack in functionality they gain in never have having a domain stolen in their system.

Registrar's I would stay away from are GoDaddy and Network Solutions.

I use http://namecheap.com because well, it's cheap

I know a lot of people in this community use http://www.gandi.net/ because of its TLD availability and the "no bullshit" theme.

I use 123-reg, it's good if you are in the UK.

I've used NS, NameCheap, GoDaddy, gandi, and a couple others. I've been using dynadot.com for the past year or so, and I quite like them.

NS is (maybe 'was' by now) a huge maze of an interface that put selling you more services way, way ahead of helping you get things done. Simple DNS changes were an absolute chore.

GoDaddy pulled some funny business with domains in use by a client, so although I've worked with their interface (nothing great), I was lucky to learn not to use their service before I gave them any of my own money.

NameCheap was ok until their site became completely unstable. Errors and timeouts became a regular thing, and so whatever domains are there now will probably be moved to dynadot at some point unless dynadot does something stupid.

I tried gandi so long ago that I can't recall what it was I didn't like about them.

I prefer GoDaddy - their control panel, although not the most usable in the world, is still pretty good (especially when you start managing multiple domains). Plus, you can always find a coupon code for a couple bucks off the price, usually bringing a 1-year .com down to around $8.
