TSOHost are fine for hosting, but not so good as registrars as everything is an extra (eg. domain privacy) so end up being expensive.

I've started using 1and1 as domain registrars as they are keenly priced and everything is included. I then just set the nameservers on the domain to TSOHost and continue to host with them.

Nice while it lasted.

I expect that Adam and Darren (TSO Founders) will have become very rich, and surely there's an opportunity here for someone else to do the same thing again.
Oh dear. It's Register1 all over again. frown

I've been happy with Domain Monster as a registrar for quite a few years. I think it is a good idea to keep hosting and domains separate.

Really, when did that happen? Google doesn't seem to know about it so not just me it would seem!

Haha no wonder I couldn't find it, TSO were bought by Paragon, which were bought by HEG which were bought by GoDaddy.

Oh well, will see how they go, only really use them for email side of domain hosting so hopefully won't get too many issues.
