What domain registrar do you use?
I have heard the best ones are - enom.com, eurodns.com and godaddy.com.
Do you agree with that?

I have ~25 domains through GoDaddy; I have yet to experience any trouble with them. Can't speak for other registrars, though.

I've been told that Register.com and NetworkSolutions are overpriced.

Go Daddy rocks my socks, but definitely don't use their hosting services.

All domains are controlled centrally by central registrars or holders, so companies such as godaddy are just resellers.

The most reliable ones would be the ones where people have not experienced a downtime on the control panel interface, since DNS pointer settings and so on are controlled centrally (not on actual godaddy).

Nameservers are different though, they are controlled by the hosting company themselves.

So in a way any reseller would be OK, even the cheapest ones would be OK, just depends on their support, my guess is that whoever provides the best control panel for managing their domains then its the best company (additional to their support).

PM if needed, I do Domain Portfolio services.

Want to add some more words that eurodns has offered coupon codes on different domain names constantly.
That attracts more clients to the company which provides that.

I always recommend that your domain host be distinct from your web host. Makes it easier when you want to migrate one or the other.

As for me, I register my domain name only at eurodns.com because I was really impressed by the number of extensions offered by this company and accreditations it has. I always find many discounts of different domain name registrations. I am really satisfied with it.

As it turned out, eurodns.com offers a great number of unique domain extensions to register and also discounts on their registration. What domain extensions are you looking for to register?

I recently registered a .se domain (Sweden) through EuroDNS and am less than pleased. I can deal with the higher price for the foreign domain, but EuroDNS charges 20 Euro to change your nameservers.

Yes, you read that right.
