Now is a good time to buy domain names

With the recent world wide panic over the US dollar causing a slump in it's value now might be a good time to buy domain names when the money is processed through the US.

How does this work?

Quite simply when teh dollar weakens against the pound, yen, euro or anyother currency the effect is that less of that currancy is needed to buy a dollar. So the price of goods in America comes down ony for those of us outside of America.

For example my domain name shop is backed by TuCows and the payment processing is done in US Dollars. Now take for example .eu names. They cost $10. This has not changed but the cost of those $10 has gone down so now a .eu should cost about £6.30 (or less).

If you are a blogger this would be an ideal time to move to your own name. Not only do you get extra presteage and so forth but as the Dollar buckles on the world market you get this for a very low price. The same goes for hosting and anything else you might order from the US.
