1&1 Took Me To Collections Hello people. My disdain for 1&1 domain registrar is not new. I have often tagged them as the worst registrar in the world and rightly so. They have one of the worst interface in my own opinion. They are also second only to GoDaddy in “bait and switch”. This is where a registrar attracts you

My Dot US idol is re-branding to Dot Com! This is the guy who took classified ads to a whole new level with .us domains.
