Domain transfer

March 21st, 2008

I’ll probably be transferring fealdia.org from Godaddy to Sitelutions. There’s the price thing, and personally I hate the godaddy pages that are full of crap. Sitelutions has also been managing the DNS for quite some time now, so I figured it’s easier to keep all the stuff in one place.

Renewal at Godaddy is 10.19 USD, transfer to Sitelutions 8.15 USD (with one year extension), new domain price being 8.75 USD. My only complaint about Sitelutions is that their free dynamic DNS is still unsecure (see the ticket OOG-19685 that was created about a year ago). There are free services that have done this right, and one is FreeDNS.afraid.org – kudos to Joshua for maintaining the service all these years!

Anyway, this may or may not mean that the site is unreachable for a while in the future. :-P

Update 2008-03-22: The transfer will proceed on 2008-03-25.

Update 2008-03-27: Transfer was a success (no DNS downtime):
