I have to admit that GoDaddy, while their products (non-domains) are not up
to my level of par, their domain name registration and safety (!) with
registering a domain with them is excellent.

Use coupon code: GLT05 in your shopping cart and a dot-com domain's price
comes down to $7.05 with fees included.  I havent seen better than that
anywhere else.
