Is it one that you just use and works just fine? Or one that has proven to be reliable and responsible if they do a mistake and only want to satisfy you as a customer?

I've been using NameSilo for years, but they're jacking the prices up significantly starting this month. I had already just renewed my domains, so I'll probably use suggestions from this post for a transfer next year ...

I use NameSilo too, after bailing on NameCheap. FYI, the .com increases are from ICANN and industry-wide, so switching providers just for that won’t save much.

With them too but I don't hold any com domains
