How to buy a domain name

Do I have exclusive rights as long as I pay? Can they raise the rates on me?

pretty sure you have exclusive rights unless payment lapses (otherwise what's the point, right?,) they might be able to raise the rates but I wouldn't worry about it, usually not very expensive (i.e. >$50 per year.) If they do you should be able to transfer it to another company anyway. The additional shiat they try to sell you (email addresses, search engine shiat etc) that's where they make their money.

I'm sure someone on here can speak to this better than me.

I've bought several domains some from godaddy, you do have exclusive rights to your domain. If someone attempts to buy it, it won't even show as available to purchase and you can transfer it if you move to a different hosting site for your website.

godaddy. They have a WHOIS search right on the main page to see if your name is taken. They try to sell you a lot of stuff that you may or may not need - I registered my name just because some douche real estate salesguy had it and let it expire, but I am working on a site for something else that I can transfer the A record over to. Actually having my own web site with my own name is almost as douchey as being a real estate agent.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
