Still Hosted at EstDomains? If you have not heard, Estdomains.com is in big trouble. Their accreditation as registrar of domains is being terminated by ICANN. Your domain hosting is in jeopardy if you are still hosted there. You could be one of thousands of decent EstDomains customers who registered domains for legitimate use. No scams, spams or frauds. But the disaster will not show mercy to anybody.

Even if the manage to dodge this setback and keeps the accreditation, the damage has already been done and may not get any better soon. Read our previous prediction about EstDomain and our emotional ride recently when using their domain and DNS hosting services:
