on 1/11/2009 If you realy looking cheap domain without non domain products to purchse, I suggest 2 companies:

1) Yahoo small business. http://smallbusiness.yahoo.com remember to look for the new account to get the deal.

2) http://www.Netfirms.net

Bottom line price from yahoo is 2.00 USD.

Next choice would be Godaddy.com who has great control panel 24 hours free support.

Good luck!
