Dynadot

Purchasing domains? Only here!
Good company to work with, I bid on a domain auction, I won the auction, and just right after the payment i realized the domain was penalized by google and also marked as a SPAM, not a situation any body wants to be in. At first they refused to refund, but after explaining the entire situation they agreed to refund. Well Done! They earned my Trust, I will definitely buy expired domains from them in the future, but will do my research in more depth before finalizing a domain! Thanks again guys! Very Satisfied!

I am not very technical but this task was handed over to me. The email keeps going down, can’t access webmail, can’t access email, how can anyone run a business with email going down?

It can go along fine for a long time and something simple just messes up everything. I Call, and it says: email us at
. Comon. They switched servers and never said anything, ahead of it just an email about «routine maintenance» and sites would be offline for 3 hrs. I ignored the email; and on the following day when i needed to access something on my site, I got: can’t connect. I emailed Dynadot (calls not accepted) and they responded «You need to change the IP address to x.x.x.x… I NEED TO? Yeah this was my fault. seems they would never have told me anything had i not by chance needed to access my site that day. What if i didn’t do it for a week? No apology; and, no email warning beforehand! Then it’s on ME. AND they didn’t even give the proper instructions in the email response, which would have been «DNS server» not «IP address». So I ended up messing up and putting the address in forwarding, and that took an extra few hours to clean up… It’s really the stuff of one star service, but, since other than this, I have never even had to talk to anyone, which is great, 2 stars. Not top shelf service.

By far the best registrar in existence. The reviews below are experiences I’ve never had in the last 10 years with Dynadot. The customer support is always fast and incredibly helpful along with the best domain management experience ever. As a domain name owner of many names, Dynadot is my go-​to domain registrar. When I purchase domains that are being held with different companies, my first action is to move them to Dynadot. The security features in making sure my domain investments are safe make me a lifetime customer.
As someone who has spent a lot of time and money buying domain names, Heather’s review (a 1 star review) puts a smile on my face. When you’re dealing with a domain name, it’s best to take precautions on making sure the person is truly who they are. Asking for a drivers license to verify that you’re in fact the real owner of a domain makes sure that your domain is safe and secure.
Regarding customer service, it’s almost impossible to not get a response from Dynadot — they have e-​mail customer service, live chat during business hours, along with a telephone # to call.
Sorry for the long review — being a long time customer with a company you have your assets with (I own a bunch of domains), it’s nice to see a Unilocal review page available to give them a rating :).

I bought website from
and somehow it got transferred to Dynadot. Well here the hassle begins. Someone at Sedo obviously registered it at Dynadot but all they say is call Dynadot. I have spent a couple of hours on the phone and emails to get my website. They registered all these wrong items to access my account… wrong birthday, wrong password, etc. Now I have to send my Driver’s License!!! What a racket! There customer service is a huge problem and no one is accountable. They won’t even sign their name or contact number.

Dynadot has great prices and I really don’t have much problems with my domain names or hosting. The reason I gave them a one star is their customer service. I have attempted to contact Dynadot with a small problem on my hosting service. I have tried for three weeks to contact them by phone and still no real person on the phone. I kept told by a recording that we are busy and to call back later. I have a better chance of contacting Sergey Brin of Google than customer assistance at Dynadot. If you want to do business with Dyandot be aware that their is no customer service by phone.

Great jumping jehosephat! There IS sanity in domain registration, and thy name is Dynadot.
I was facing a critical juncture — my domain was coming up for renewal, but I also wanted to switch mail hosts. I had to switch mail hosts before renewing my domain or I’d have to wait 45 days (an ICANN precaution against domain hijackers). Trying to do the simple tasks on Network Solutions (my then-​registrar) that were necessary to switch mail hosts resulted in me banging my head against the wall repeatedly.
After several attempts by me and R, I threw my gauntlet down and said «screw it. I’ll change registrars too.» So I researched and found Dynadot.
They’re not the cheapest, but there are so many negatives associated with the skeevy cheap registrars (e.g., GoDaddy) that it was worthwhile for me to pay a couple bucks more. However, their pricing is FAR below what I was paying at Network Solutions!
The process of switching was absolutely painless, feedback was immediate, and management of my domain is now a breeze. I am sold!
