If you have been thinking of buying a domain name, now is the time. Yahoo is currently offering domain names for $2.99/year (up to 5 years). A good deal. Much better than my deal, when I got my awads.net domain name from Yahoo a few months ago (it was about $5/year then). (via)

Stay clear of Yahoo! domains! I’m not just saying this because I had a bad experience even though I did. I’ve found many other people that cannot get support. In my case there was something wrong with their DNS server and 50% of the time a surfer would just get the standard “Under Construction Page”. 50% of the time they would get my web site. After countless calls and emails I finally gave up and paid a third party to host my DNS.

It is some company in Australia and they have worked it out with Yahoo! so that all transfers get lost in communication between the two companies. In frustration, some people have just let their domains expire and hope like heck that some squatter doesn’t snap it up before they can reregister it.
I have three domain names with Yahoo: awads.net, oradot.com and oraqa.com. I have never had any problems with them. But, I must admit that I have never contacted Yahoo support before.
