I need to register a .my domain but I cant find a reputable provider.

 

I have done a Google search and found a couple of companies that do offer the .my domain but none that I recognise or that look like a site that I would put my credit card details into.

 

can anyone recommend a site?

Ive never heard of .my i even looked on 123-reg.co.uk/godaddy.com and didn't find anything. Then i googled it and .my is a malaysia domain extension which could be why its not listed on any UK/US sites. Its also expensive from what i saw on a site. Do you plan to launch a site in malaysia? Could be worth looking for a web host in malaysia and see if they offer domains.

I'm guessing you're looking to register a vanity domain like taxider.my?

 

Best advice is: don't bother. Look at all the sites/services that have launched with vanity domains (del.icio.us, bit.ly etc) - they've all discovered the hard way that people will misremember or mistype the domain because it doesn't conform to their expectations, which is why we have delicious.com and bitly.com.

Make your decision.

Well this should help http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.my but as Chris said, make sure you also register a standard TLD (such as .com, .co.uk etc) as users can be pretty thick at times

If you wish you can find different registrars here. I've found there a lot of services which provides domains in different zones.
