Has anyone tried register.com or 1 & 1 for site hosting

I'm getting ready to buy my own domain name and web space and I'd like to know what would be the best. If anyone has used register.com or 1 & 1, I'd like to know what you think. Or if anyone knows of other good places and could share your experiences that would help also. Thanks.

I´m using the german 1&1 and am very content with it. Good speed, good maintenance and affordable.

I use 1 & 1 for my private portfolio site www.zwergenhalle.de and am also content with speed and service. I even consider switching my business site from MCI to 1 & 1 at the moment.

I've been using dotster.com for years. They only charge 14.95 a domain name per year. There are places cheaper but i've found them to be reliable. Network solutions charges 35 a year and i haven't really noticed and difference. The customer service is better at net sol but I've only had to call dotster once in about 3 years. Good luck.

period. I'm using it since 4 years with some friends. They are reliable and I personally never noticed any downtime. And, yeah, it's affordable :chug:
