eNom vs GoDaddyDawn Rossi, 03-06-2008 |
Which domain registrar do you use for all your domain registrations? eNom or GoDaddy?
We rely on eNom for all domain registrations.
eNom is #2 in market share (http://www.registrarstats.com) but we found them much better suited for high volume high availability sites.
Unlike GoDaddy, eNom offers a 5 second TTL (Time To Live), which means if the need arises we can quickly point the domain to another IP address and the switch takes place within 5 seconds across the entire net, not 24 hours or 4 hours.
If catastrophe hits and the entire East Coast data center gets nuked, it helps to know we can switch everything to the West Coast and have the change propagate within 5 seconds.
Other benefits of eNom are -
(1) Full API support and
(2) With eNom names resolve a little faster (the initial few seconds delay when someone firsts visits the site is going to be something like 1 second instead of 1.5 seconds)
