Yahoo Domains $1.99

Fergal C

For a limited time Yahoo domains are offering domains for $1.99. I've heard a couple of good reports about their service but I don't really know what it is like.

It is very cheap though, four domains for the price of one, off to grab a few domains while the offer is still up.

Whats the standard price per annum for the domains once the offer has expired ?

Standard price seems to be $9.95. According to their site (http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com/domains) it says "save 80% per year for up to 5 years". Does this mean that next year it will be $1.99 or does it mean that the normal price of $9.95 is already reduced by 80%?

Incidentally, when you sign up for the domain it also says...

I'm still getting a price of $1.99 per domain on their site. Yes their standard price is $9.95.

I'd heard that they were only allowing one domain per user. However, I registered about 15 domains yesterday evening, not bad for $30. Hopefully they will not charge me any extras for them.

I got a call this morning, from the efficient people at AIB Visa checking the security of so many small payments to Yahoo.

Bear in mind that you may get locked into using their hosting, or similar.
