All registrars are not the same. Factor the operational differences into
your potential $avings and see if you really do save money.

That's the classic argument, right? Pay an Australian provider twice as much
for the same thing because you'll allegedly get local support...

OTOH, ($15.00 * 5,000 Domains) == $75,000 off your bottom line... Put me on
hold, shut up and take my money! =)

Oh Lord not godaddy. At least go to someone like mydomain or TPP if you're
willing to skimp out, godaddy is not for business use at all. I don't
critisize your clients really, but if they have websites and $5-15/yr
difference matters... Tell em not to buy a couple coffees and use that money
to buy piece of mind instead of panic when godaddy screws up and you're on
hold for a couple hours at midnight.

Sorry if this is not 100% on topic.

I administer a bunch domains for various clients and they are all currently
with an expensive (but reliable) Australian domain registrar.

As the number of domains is growing, I am thinking of using GoDaddy as they
are significantly cheaper and now offer .com.au & .net.au.

If anyone has any recommendations/experience of overseas domain registrars,
I would appreciate some advice (off list if necessary).

Thanks,
