Title: Domain Name ordering with bitcoins
Post by: speedmann on June 08, 2012, 07:15:00 AM
Hi there,
as i am new to this whole thing i wanted to ask you if you know any ISP which offers Domain Name Hosting (Just DNS and Registration) for btc.

As far as i figured out there ist  Kalyhost.com but most people in the forum say they are not good. There have been a few other Hosts but they only offer Domains WAY to expensive (.com for 20USD? No way!) I do not need any  anonymization or stuff like this. I want to be Owner and Admin-C of the domain by myself.
Any suggestions? Thanks a lot ;)

Don't use kalyhost.

I think micro-tronix is good. I paid about $16 worth of coin for a domain, but I just clicked all the extra stuff, I think the base price was 9-10 USbucks.

Hi FreeMoney,

thank you for answering my question.
They seem ok for 10,99$ (I need the dns management addon for 1$ :-P)
But they do have a little down side, the do offer just a few tlds.
Maybe i give them a try when i have enough coins for a test domain :)

Any other suggestions?

Thanks for this tip, seems interesting too, but yesterday when i tried to access the website it told me the ssl certificate was invalid... So don't know if i can trust them...

For the moment i created an micro-tronix Domain Reseller Account (they also offer Bitcoin funding with this).
So when i do get enough btc i will try them out and hopefully will report something here ;)

Thanks :) But i know this. I am specially looking for suggestions and experience with these Hosting Providers. When i had used this overview, i would have ended with Kalyhost and as far as i can judge them (i opened a presales support ticket and did not get any response) it would have been a bad decission :)

That is the same level of support that has been reported by paying customers...
