I wanted input on how people manage their clients domains.

Do you guys set it up as where they own it themselves and pay for it themselves or what?

I have a few clients where the domain is actually owned by me, and i wanted to know if i need to change it to where they own it themselves.

Thanks.

They pay for it so they should own it. I don't think they are obligated to stay with you so might want to move without having to contact you (theoretically).

What I do for domains is put a four month hold on them. This way when somebody signs up for a hosting package with a free domain, they can't just cancel the account before 30 days and transfer the domain to another server.

Probably cost a few customers, but also saves a few bucks at the same time.

So, should i just tell them to set it up themselves? I don't think that will fly with some of them, as they are somewhat computer illiterate. Should I just sign it up for them, under their info and Credit Card?

WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU THINKING?

Keep the domain yourself! Later, you can hold them for ransom! Way better than domain-squatting. If they get nasty, sell the domain to a porn company that can harness the traffic. When their customers visit... well... it's a "hard" call

Muahahaha~!

Finally! Someone with some useful input! Can you suggest a good porn company to sell all my domains to?

Hell... it doesn't really matter. What these guys do it buy up old domains that have decent traffic and then just reroute it all to their own sites. Any of them will do  

Off the top of my head, try SmackMyBitchUp.com
