Epik wins the Namepros 2020 Best registrar As I have stated before this year’s poll was pretty contentious for the first time the poll was public.

Continue ReadingNamepros updates their commenting system
Namepros made a change today that has been a long time coming. For some it’s trivial, others they wish to see it disappear and for others it’s about time.
