$1 Domains at Dotster!
Tuesday, February 14th, 2006
Dotster is hosting a “domain name happy hour” at 4PM EST today.
During this happy hour domains will only cost $1 each. But it is unclear what the limits are for this special offer.
Visit Dotster at 4PM EST today to get in on the action!
Update 4:29PM EST: Dotster is running slow. My guess is a lot of people are pinging it and some people probably created scripts to bulk register. Note that there is a limit of 1 $1 domain per order and 5 orders per person.
Update 5:00 EST: Ever go to a bar for happy hour and the line is too long to get in? That’s what happened at the Dotster happy hour. I was able to add a domain to my cart, but the server was moving too slowly to justify the savings. There’s a note on Dotster’s page right now saying that the happy hour is over but you can still get domains for only $5.99 each.
