Being a reseller for eNOM, and knowing that NameCheap is also a reseller, AND having used NameCheap for a year for more than 200 domains, I would have to say it would be in your best interest to find a different eNOM reseller to give you a good price on a reseller account.

What is VERY important to look out for, is the quality of the Tech Support and Customer Service the eNOM reseller you sign under, has.

My personal experience with NameCheap, though $8.88 is a decent enough price, you are also buying CHEAP, unreliable technical support!

No phone number to contact....... Days go by with no response to e-mails, domains that are close to expiration, mysteriously are no longer available in your account to remove the registrar lock to enable a transfer OUT of NameCheap. Making it impossible to transfer the names out unless you e-mail them, and HOPE to have it straightened out BEFORE the expiration.

This coupled with a difficult site for navigation and domain name management, especially for those with MANY domains!

There are some REALLY GOOD eNOM resellers that can give you both a good price and decent support. So take your time and look around for a good one!

You'll be happier and you will stand to profit more, with LESS B.S.

eNOM in my book, is the best game out there for domain name resellers!

I may not offer a $7.99 price for initially to resellers, however you can be sure that you will get great support, with a great deal of experience in using eNOM. VOLUME dictates the prices I offer to the reseller who signs up with Beyond Domains.

The new PDQ interface is REALLY VERY NICE!! And saves me so much time by comparison to using Rocket Registry links, like I used to do at Beyond Domains. Using Rocket Registry links meant I had to process each new account myself, with PDQ this is done automatically for me!!

However, there are a few things you should know about the PDQ interface and how it works....

1. You may have only ONE (1) PDQ account per reseller account. However, you may use the PDQ interface with any other domain name as well.

2. If you currently have a domain site up and running, you may not want to COMPLETELY dedicate that domain name to the PDQ interface, as you will not be bale to retain the content of your site. eNOM does take over the DNS and you do not have the option of adding other content.

To solve this problem, I used BeyondDomains.net for the PDQ interface, because this would make sense to my clients, though it's the .NET, it is obviously Beyond Domains. Then I just have links to BeyondDomains.net for domain name registrations, transfers, and domain name management from BeyondDomains.com.

This way I still have my main BeyondDomains.com site running, with all my content and my search engine rankings staying intact, with all the advantages of PDQ available for my customers, using BeyondDomains.net.

PDQ is the BEST thing eNOM has introduced in the past year and WELL WORTH the $99 yearly fee for it's use.

I have submitted a WISH LIST to eNOM requesting control over the Meta Tags, and Header Info, as well as the Page Title. In addition I would like to see STATS to better inform me of where my sales are being generated from.

I signed up for PDQ the day it became available and I have been using it ever since! I LOVE IT!
