• Morgan Linton: Focuses on brandable .com domains with fair pricing (e.g., Bold.com).

• Saw.com: Brokerage firm known for rejecting speculative, overpriced listings.

There are more reputable players in the industry. We will dicuss them in the section of Hall of Fame.

Registrars with Fair Practices (In No Particular Order)

• Cloudflare: Wholesale pricing ($9.77/year for .com), no upselling.

• Porkbun: Quirky branding but serious about customer support and fair fees.

• Dynadot: Solid service and priced reasonably.

• Spaceship: Operated by Namecheap, they offer stable service at lower cost.

What Makes Them Different?
