If you've got a lot of domains or are willing to pay their crazy retail prices - Fabulous.com. I've been with them for many years and have hundreds of domains with them. Best service and feature set I've experienced (and price, but I am no

No right answer to this question. I can definitely see some circumstances where it would be worth it. Owning the category killer domain can be incredibly valuable. The brand recognition and instant credibility of a good domain is also unden

Linode is one of the cheapest providers of VPSes that are mainstream. I think you will have a hard time finding something comparable. I track web hostign companies for my startup ( http://reviewsignal.com/webhosting ) and the only company

I think the big question is it depends on your needs/budget. I use ec2 to test stuff. But I use managed vps for important stuff. It also depends on what your app does and where you expect to bottleneck (cpu/band/disk). (Disclaimer: this is

Is it something people pay for? How much? How much can you acquire new customers for? You need to test your business model. It's not really clear what you're doing so it's hard to try to be concrete or very constructive.

The economics of owning a lot of domains pays off when your portfolio covers the cost of all registrations/renewals. The average churn rate on big portfolios is 2-3%. So simply offering a 10% on top as profit doesn't work. The average sale

My startup tracks web hosting providers and what people have said about them publicly. It's mostly US focused though. I would look at the VPS section, companies like Linode (already recommended) are rated quite highly. No host is perfect,
