Namecheap and Name.com May 2010 Coupons

admin — Sun, 16 May 2010 11:21:23 +0000

Oops, I forgot to post these domain registration coupons for two of the best registrars on the Internet. Forget GoDaddy, for the cheapest, most hassle free domain registrations use namecheap.com and name.com.

This month both companies have released their May 2010 coupons which gives you some great discounts on your registrations for .com’s, .net’s and .org’s. These coupons are only valid for May 2010.

Namecheap coupon May 2010: MOTHERSLOVE – .com registration for $8.81
Name.com coupon May 2010: MAYHEM ($8.15 COM, NET, WS & ME)
Name.com renewal coupon May 2010: COMWHATMAY ($8.20 .COM and .NET renewals)

Unfortunately there are no renewal coupon codes for Namecheap although I have read somewhere that if you are a power user with Namecheap and have more than 50 domains with them they’ll send you a special renewal coupon code that only you can use.

$11 Hosting – And It’s Good!

I’m a great fan of tier two hosting companies. By that I mean small businesses, usually run by an individual or a partnership, but still provide very good service and exceptional value for money. Although they might not have the reliability of tier one hosting companies like HostGator or DreamHost, they certainly have a place in my business plans.

One of the services I’ve been using for the past 8 months is StableHost. I found a 50% discount coupon and got annual hosting on a European server for around $21 – a bargain when you consider other larger companies charge $60 or more for the same service.

Of course, I don’t put my money sites on these cheaper hosts, but they are excellent for feeder sites to my money sites. For example, I have a PLR guide website on StableHost that points to my PLR Articles Site which is on HostGator. It doesn’t matter too much if the PLR guide site goes down for a hour or so.

Anyway, StableHost are having a bit of a bumper deal right now where you can get unlimited domain hosting for just $11 per year AND you are locked in to that price for a lifetime.

Just visit their site, www.stablehost.com and when you are on the checkout page, enter the following coupon for a massive 75% discount:

AREWECRAZY

This coupon is only available on the US servers and expires after the first 500 coupons, so you need to get in quick.

So far StableHost have lived up to their name for me and I’m happy to recommend their services.

Namecheap and Name.com April 2010 Coupons

Saving money when registering a domain is a smart thing to do and if you don’t already, searching for coupon codes for things like domain registration and hosting is something you should start doing.

This month I have got Namecheap coupon codes and Name.com coupon codes – these are only valid for April 2010 as they change them monthly and also only valid for new registrations. So here we go:

Namecheap coupon April 2010: APRILFUN – .com registration for $8.81
Name.com coupon April 2010: ALLABOUTU ($8.25 .ME coupon, still waiting for a .COM coupon)

Unfortunately there are no renewal coupon codes for Namecheap or Name.com although I have read somewhere that if you are a power user with Namecheap and have more than 50 domains with them they’ll send you a special renewal coupon code that only you can use.

April 2010 PageRank Update

admin — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 05:18:40 +0000

It looks like Google has been busy over the Easter holiday and sneaked out a PageRank export. As all good SEO analysts know, the PageRank you see in the magic green bar is only a snap shot of the actual PageRank for your site, which constantly updates but is only known to Google.

Virtually all my money sites have lost PageRank, with plrarticleshop.com going from a PR4 to PR2, however it still holds the same rankings and is getting more traffic than ever before – proof, perhaps, that the PageRank shown in the toolbar matters so little nowadays.

My feeder sites all have a PageRank now, either increasing from PR0 or 1 to PR1 or 2.

So how did you fare in the April 2010 PageRank update? (Not that it makes much difference but us Webmasters / Internet Marketers do like the validation of the little green bar!).

Very Cheap $5.45 Dot Coms From Whiz.in

admin — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 06:33:20 +0000

There are loads of domain registrars available and I probably use all of them! Although Namecheap is my favourite because of the excellent interface for managing domains, they are no longer as cheap as they used to be (unless you search for coupons which will reduce the price to $8.88). At the other extreme you have registrars like DotSter who think they can charge an arm and a leg (that’s $16 to you and I) for a dot com – nearly double what everyone else charges, and privacy protection is extra.

I have come across several domain registrars that are cheaper than Namecheap, for example name.com is as cheap as $8.09 with a coupon.

However, there is another little known registrar that I’ve found that has an astonishing $5.45 sale on all dot com’s! That’s the cheapest I’ve ever seen it, you don’t even need a coupon to get this special price. It also comes with free whois privacy, something many other sites charge $5 or more for.

The site is called Whiz.in and it’s owned by an Indian company which is why the prices are so cheap. I’ve been using them for over a year now and they are consistently amongst the lowest priced for any TLD or ccTLD domain registration. They accept PayPal (although there is a small fee) as well, which makes it great for us Internet marketers.
