Best Domain Registration Services

I asked hundreds of small business owners which domain registration service they used, trusted and would recommend to others. The companies that received the most votes are the services you see listed here.

I had two main criteria for an domain registration service to make my list:

1. Proof of Customer Satisfaction. The service must have legitimate, verifiable customer testimonials. If I couldn't verify the testimonials, I didn't list the service. It's that simple.

2. Stability. The service must have an online track record of at least three years.

Following are the results of my survey:
