Just wondering what/wheres the best place to buy a domain, safe, price efficient etc service?

Tsohost still run by the guy who is on here? Used him over 10 years ago and service was great.

I'm looking to purchase a domain in place of using dyndns, is it possible to do this? Direct my domain to my ip? Anyway of keeping it updated?

Edit, registered a domain with tso, thanks for starting the thread!

Tsohost

Vida is so much better than Tso ( ..

)

I use Namecheap for domains and my own servers for hosting.

Here's a python script which updates your IP if you use cloudflare for the domains DNS.

Namecheap and hostgator are good, been using them for years.

Nimbus Hosting. Hands down the best customer service I have received from a web hosting company. Ever. And that's with 15ish years experience.

I use one.com for my company website and email.

They're expensive, twice as much for a .com compared to other places. Since the OP wants domains and not hosting, I would still recommend a place where domains are the core business, and not Vidahost or similar.
