We sell domain names (and we’re a dessert topping)
Lately, I seem to be all “buy, buy, buy”, when I’m not being all “complain, complain, complain”. Sorry ‘bout that.
Flippy and I have had a domain name resellers’ account since 2002, and it never occured to me to mention it here until now. If you need to buy any sort of domain names or features which go with domain names (like hosting), you can buy them through us by going to CynicalDog.net. If the interface looks at all familiar, it’s because we “rent” our reseller business from the same company which runs GoDaddy. All the features we offer, all the customer service, and the hosting, etc., is run just the same as if you’d purchased it from GoDaddy. The only difference is that any small profits would come to us. If we ever decided to go out of business, your account would automatically revert to a GoDaddy/Wild West Domains account, so you’d never be left hanging.
Flippy and I bought the reseller’s license because we own so many domain names for various jobs and pursuits, we saved a lot of money by purchasing them with our own license. I always set the sale prices for all domains, renewals, and other features as low as they can possibly go. I’m limited in how high and how low the account prices can fluctuate, and I set them as low as possible! I just reconfigured them tonight, as there was a price change, so you’ll now pay $6.95 for a domain name (new or renewed). In terms of commission from one sale of that size, we make about 40 cents.
We’ve had many friends and family using the service and have had no complaints. One nice thing is that if anything goes drastically wrong with your domain registration, we can probably help you look up the details if you can’t find them yourself. We try to provide good customer service ![]()
So, if you want a domain name, I hope you’ll think of us. I can say with a great degree of certainty that almost every profit we make from anything ends up being spent on the pets!
