Domain Name Registrar Review Site — DNW Launches

RegistrarJudge.com allows users to rate domain registrars.

I’m excited to announce the launch of the beta for RegistrarJudge.com.

Registrar Judge allows domainers and other consumers to rate domain registrars on 5 criteria and write reviews regarding them. Domain registrars are automatically ranked on the site as stated by the ratings.

There are lots of forums and other discussions regarding domain registrars, but I haven’t found a simple way to rank and review domain registrars all in one place.

Using Registrar Judge.com is simple and no registration is required.

1. Click on the registrar you’d like to review.
2. Fill out your name and e-mail address (e-mail address is not published)
3. Optionally fill out your web site address (hint: this creates a link back to your site)
4. Rate the registrar based on Overall, Price, Security, Client Service, and Account Management Tools. These are the aspects rated most notable by people who have completed the Reglike annual survey the past few years.
5. Click submit

Of course, Registrar Judge is only valuable if the community contributes. So head on over to the site and submit a couple reviews. Right now you can submit reviews on 12 of the largest domain registrars and more will be added in the future.

If Registrar Judge takes off, then I’ll proceed with my plans to develop ParkingJudge.com to rate domain name parking firms.
