Hello,

What domain registrar are you using for your owner rez website?  Are there certain ones that are better than others? That is, are there certain ones that are slow? We have created our website in OR and finally getting ready to launch it.  Not familiar with any of this so have been a little tentative with starting up...  :)  Thanks for any information you can provide.

Namecheap is who I use.  I have around 20 domains with them, very happy.  Inexpensive and they don't work against you like GoDaddy does.

I started, built, and sold four domain name companies, including two registrars and two registries, so I have a little bit of experience in this area. 

For the most part registrars are closely regulated by ICANN and you shouldn't have much of a problem with any of them.  If you want good prices and excellent (free) customer service, I highly recommend PorkBun, based in Portland OR.  http://www.porkbun.com.   If you're set on using a Big Registrar, I'd recommend Hover, based in Toronto.  http://www.hover.com
