The average domain name is fairly inexpensive, not more than $10 - $30 per year, depending on your domain registrar. But as you buy more and more domain names, you will find that it can quickly become a very expensive habit. Fortunately, costs can be kept to a minimum by doing the following three things:
Here are a few GoDaddy discount codes for domain names. To use the following codes, just type them into the promotion field during checkout.
(A 20 cent ICANN fee will also be assessed for all domain name registrations.)
Yesterday, Alex at Blogsessive released yet another of his super-tempting domain name lists. And while the most versatile domains were quickly registered by eager bloggers, there are still a few great picks left on his current and past lists. So, head over and take a look.

godaddy is my registrar and i am ready for some renewals
so thanks!
@stratos: Glad to help. I personally refuse to buy a domain at full price. So I thought I’d share some promo codes.
Really useful information. Though how do you find out these promotion codes?
I’ve been using Name.com for all my domains but then GoDaddy seems to be the more popular one though. I suppose they are the granddaddy of domain names, aren’t they?
Yan
Shirley, one quick question. Are domain names like niharsworld.com is for one or two years. it is not for full life time. I was under impression that domain name is purchased only once. but need to pay yearly for hosting it.
Please clarify.
Even I buy all my domains at godaddy. I got islandcrisis.net at $7.50
Nihar,
You need to pay for domain renewal each year for as long as you keep the domain active. Just like hosting.
Yan
@binaryday: Some of those codes are non-expiring, so I’ve saved them for some time, and others are sent to me via various newsletters and GoDaddy promotional emails.
@Yan: I’ve never used name.com. I just checked them out and their standard domain prices seem to be in the same range as GoDaddy.
I use GoDaddy just because of their name, they are secure, have regular promotions and excellent support.
@Nihar: As Yan stated, you do need to keep paying for domains. It’s called a domain renewal.
Your domain, for example, expires in January 2010. That is when you will have to renew for an additional period of time. (ie. 1-10 years.)
@Kurt: Not bad. Do you own only one domain? Or have you purchased others?
Cool list. I got a few from the website listed that I keep in a text document as they keep working. I never pay full price for a domain either!
RRTV1 - 10% off
RRTV2 - $5 off orders of $30 or more
RRTV3 - .COM’s for $7.49
These work for renewals too which is where it’s really saved me a bundle!

On top of that Godaddy offers refunds within 5 days of purchase…still not sure if other registrars do.
While we’re on the subject, nowadays anyone paying more then 10 bucks each should be flogged
Dennis Edell’s last blog post..Guest Bloggers Wanted/Needed Right Here
@Dennis: Indeed. I am still shocked that some registrars have higher prices, and even more shocked that people are paying these prices.
Have you gotten a refund on a domain name?
Does it work for renewal as well? Thinking of buying my name as domain. How does that sound Shirley?
Ben Pei’s last blog post..Don’t You Want To Retire At 21?
@Ben: Yes, above next to the codes, I do mention when one works for renewals. As for your name, that’s always a good idea. It’d be annoying if someone scooped it up and used it for slander… That’s my biggest fear, and why I own my name.
I sure have; refunded a few times.
I suffer from terminal gunghoism. I get the idea, think up a name and buy it. Then a day or two later, several better names pop into my head. Oops. Yep, refunds are my friend.
Dennis Edell’s last blog post..Guest Bloggers Wanted/Needed Right Here
@Dennis: Wow. Well, I have never refunded. But now that I know how easy it is, I might start buying domain names a little more freely.
You know, I’ve heard that a lot of people make big sums of free money by regularly refunding domains. ie. They register a domain, throw on some advertising, refund it a few days later and keep the loot. This way, they never pay registration fees but do get to take advantage of affiliate advertising.
Domain refund? Now that’s new to me. Well, I’m not too sure if name.com allows one to do so. I’m gonna check though…..
By the way, Shirley, what’s this domain for adsense? Any idea?
Blogging Tips’s last blog post..Are You Making This Mistake In Building Trust?
Remember you only have 5 days.
Yea, MFA junkies used to do that. Test it for adsense; if it didn’t garner the results they wanted, they’d just refund. The powers at Godaddy actually swiped some accounts that were obvious…100 or so at a time.
@Yan - If you find name.com does refund, let me know on this post…

Since you mentioned godaddy, I’ll also provide some recent results for Godaddy coupon codes. Most of these discount coupons listed in your post will be expired.
I am a .NET Programmer, and these completely verified godaddy discounts can be extremely useful when buying or renewing a domain. Use Godaddy promo code ZINE7 for $7.49 .com domains and renewals. I save about $10 every time I purchase from go daddy. When You buy at least five domain names, I also get free private registration when I use ZINE7.
For other Godaddy.com promo code coupons, use ZINE5 for 10% off, ZINE6 for $5 coupon any purchase of $30 or more, and ZINE25 for $25 off any purchase of $100 or more, like hosting plans.
These godaddy promo codes are current, working, and non expiring til july 2010. Hope these Godaddy coupon codes save just as much money for the other blog subscribers as they have for my projects. Keep up the good work! - Melva from Burlingame, CA.
Indeed, Godaddy offers the absolute best in domain registration and customer service. Many’s the time I’ve phoned them at 4 in the morning and talked to an actual human who assisted me with a website issue!
In the interest of keeping up to date, my usual list of codes has been updated:
RRTV5 - 10% off any order not already discounted.
RRTV6 - $5 off orders of $30 or more
RRTV7 - .COM for $7.49 (this one is my personal fave)
It’s just adding to this growing list but I hope it helps other people. We all gotta save where we can these days!
