The website, which claims to be an online directory listing for top websites from local businesses from around the world and appears to be around from 2002, is using an address used by another company. This is what makes me question the legitimacy of Domain Networks. If you have any information about Domain Networks, please share in a comment below.

I’m gonna be one squeaky wheel. Any suggestions from anyone else? Please and thank you0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userSep 8, 2022 by September 8, 2022an anonymous user from: Waynesboro, Virginia, United StatesI don't believe that Domain Networks is an outright fraudulent operation, but they are definitely a scam in that they heavily promote their directory listing service as something that will help local businesses improve their marketing for their products or services, which they can not or do not actually do. And, they claim they will do so for an insane annual amount, generally $289 in the several invoice-looking letters I receive from them periodically. I have several business domains that I maintain, and the actual domain registration fees are paid through the web hosting providers I use for typically $25 to $35 annually. They do actually include your business in their "listing services" but that listing is worthless. No one looking for a local business will likely never see your listing for several reasons. First, no one looking for a local business would even know this "company" even existed to help them find the business they are looking for. Anyone would normally go to Google, Yahoo Search, Bing Search, etc., and search there to find the same, if not more information, about any business or business category you can imagine. Second, searching with any of the common search engines is so much easier than searching through Domain Networks listings. All domain networks is doing is sort of publishing a private version of the old telephone book Yellow Pages, and their only listed businesses will be those dumb enough to fall for their scam.The Yellow Pages, as well as all the search engines mentioned above, all list businesses in whatever area you are searching, and not just the ones who have bought a listing on Domain Networks. Bottom line - Domain Networks is clearly not claiming to be a domain registration company, and their so-called listing service is definitely a scam since it is promoting services that have none of the benefits they claim to provide to those who purchase a listing. They are simply trying to sell a listing service for an insane price to businesses who already are listed by all search engines at no cost at all, and they don't even do as good a job as the free search engines do. I also do not believe they intend to keep promoting their scam since their own domainnetworks.com domain is currently (September 2022) for sale.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userSep 7, 2022 by September 7, 2022an anonymous user from: Sunbury Township, Budd, Illinois, United StatesIn my opinion this is a fraud. I called them, only voice mail, only PO Box, they wanted me to send them $289 to renew my GoDaddy.com domain name that is $39.78 for 2 years. Confirmed with GoDaddy who informed me they were looking into this issue. Anyone can search and pick up domain names.

Chances are you've already paid for your URL and domain, not to mention web hosting through your usual suspects of BlueHost (bluhost.com), GoDaddy (godaddy.com), HostGator (hostgator.com), potentially even Square Space (squarespace.com), Wix (wix.com), Wordpress (Wordpress.com or Wordpress.org) or any number of you've already paid for your web domain or ISP, and probably for $10-20 though sometimes free to a few bucks to maybe $50. You'd almost never have to pay $289 to some company for your domain network. It's an absolute scam and, as others said, they should be shut down.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userAug 23, 2022 by August 23, 2022an anonymous user from: Surprise, Arizona, United StatesTOTAL scam. Yes, they DO say they aren't domain registrars, but it's in small print and they are just plain shady. My clients freak out over these (and I have lots of clients so lots of freak out emails!!).If you Google their "address" you'll see it's just a company registrar agent. No phone number and no proper contact address = RUN THE #^%$ AWAY! In their T&C they list a mailing address in NC.

This is not a service for domain registration, it is a scam that 'list' your website on their page for $289. It is of no relevance to your comparison.

I received a fraudulent invoice from them recently, they do not host my domain name and wanted to charge me 3 times our normal cost.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 30, 2022 by April 30, 2022an anonymous user from: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United StatesIn my opinion, it is a very unethical method they use to basically hijack your domain listing. They send u a notice that resembles an invoice with demands that u pay their huge fee to keep your domain actice or loose it by a certain date. The halarious part is that don't even control your domain? However, if u pay their fee and sign your domain over to these people, they will control it and the fees will continue to escallate! My advice is to take their invoice and stick it in the shredder and forget about them!0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 26, 2022 by April 26, 2022an anonymous user from: Los Angeles, California, United StatesScam. On their website, they have a FAQ window that straight out explains what they are doing. They send mail contents that can only be described as a bill but call it a marketing advertisement. If anyone sends any money to them thinking it was a bill, I am more than sure they will have a tough time getting it back.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 21, 2022 by April 21, 2022an anonymous user from: Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United StatesIt's a deceptive marketing scam to join their service, which apparently doesn't even renew your domain registration either (Even though it's written like one) It says:"We are not a domain registrar and we do not register or renew domain names"0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 18, 2022 by April 18, 2022an anonymous user from: Downtown Redmond, Redmond, Washington, United StatesIt's not really a scam, just an evil marketing ploy.

Totally misleading! My site is not up for renewal until 2025 so it's bull. I like the one statement on the "bill" -- "Return by date above to avoid offer expiration." HAHAHAHAHA!It also says on the back page that this is "not a bill -- this is a solicitation."0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 4, 2022 by April 4, 2022an anonymous user from: Penn Hills Township, Penn Hills, Pennsylvania, United StatesComplete scam.

Do not pay anything. Yes, they do inform you - eventually - that "this is not a bill", merely a solicitation, but the first thing you see beside your address in big bold letters is "please remit payment". Misleading? Deliberately so? Of course.They are sending out thousands upon thousands of these letters, so clearly enough people are falling for this that they're making money hand over fist (and have no compunction about wasting huge amounts of paper).As others have pointed out here, this is not web hosting or domain name registration; it's merely having your website maybe listed on their website (that no-one knows to look at).Now to try their "Do Not Contact" system. We'll see.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 2, 2022 by April 2, 2022an anonymous user from: Floyd, Virginia, United StatesBig scam!!

They tried to get me to renew my domain for $289 - when it's only $17.99 on Dreamhost.comThey will send you PDF, which by the way is made from an image, not a word doc. It's not editable, so that is a clue also. I tried to use my PDF edit tool to copy & paste the address or the text of the bill, but I cannot edit it because it was never LEGITIMATELY made from an original document.

YOU DO NOT OWE THEM ANY MONEY. They send you a "bill" for a ridiculous amount of money to simply list your website, not to host it (which is what you probably thought at first). I doubt anyone looks at their directory, as other reviewers have stated. The most satisfying thing you can do is rip their bill up and throw it away.0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userMar 29, 2022 by March 29, 2022an anonymous user from: Downtown Redmond, Redmond, Washington, United StatesThank you, the invoice looked suspicious0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userMar 24, 2022 by March 24, 2022an anonymous user from: Mountain View, California, United StatesThey are a SCAM. If you read their "fine print" they clearly say they are a solicitation for listing and are not in the registration or renewal of domain names. Their solicitation makes you think you need to pay to keep your web address. In actuality you pay them and they "list" your company in their directory that no one uses.

Chances are you've already paid for your URL and domain, not to mention web hosting through your usual suspects of BlueHost (bluhost.com), GoDaddy (godaddy.com), HostGator (hostgator.com), potentially even Square Space (squarespace.com), Wix (wix.com), Wordpress (Wordpress.com or Wordpress.org) or any number of you've already paid for your web domain or ISP, and probably for $10-20 though sometimes free to a few bucks to maybe $50. You'd almost never have to pay $289 to some company for your domain network. It's an absolute scam and, as others said, they should be shut down.
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userAug 23, 2022 by August 23, 2022an anonymous user from: Surprise, Arizona, United StatesTOTAL scam. Yes, they DO say they aren't domain registrars, but it's in small print and they are just plain shady. My clients freak out over these (and I have lots of clients so lots of freak out emails!!).If you Google their "address" you'll see it's just a company registrar agent. No phone number and no proper contact address = RUN THE #^%$ AWAY! In their T&C they list a mailing address in NC. Can't get a lot more scammy/deceitful than that...

0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userJul 7, 2022 by July 7, 2022an anonymous user from: Woodway, Texas, United StatesVery dumb. This is not a service for domain registration, it is a scam that 'list' your website on their page for $289. It is of no relevance to your comparison. Read the fake bill!

They make a solicitation look like a bill, when it's all about charging you to be listed on their web site. Complete BS.

0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 30, 2022 by April 30, 2022an anonymous user from: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, United StatesIn my opinion, it is a very unethical method they use to basically hijack your domain listing. They send u a notice that resembles an invoice with demands that u pay their huge fee to keep your domain actice or loose it by a certain date. The halarious part is that don't even control your domain? However, if u pay their fee and sign your domain over to these people, they will control it and the fees will continue to escallate! My advice is to take their invoice and stick it in the shredder and forget about them!
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 26, 2022 by April 26, 2022an anonymous user from: Los Angeles, California, United StatesScam. On their website, they have a FAQ window that straight out explains what they are doing. They send mail contents that can only be described as a bill but call it a marketing advertisement. If anyone sends any money to them thinking it was a bill, I am more than sure they will have a tough time getting it back.
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 21, 2022 by April 21, 2022an anonymous user from: Eau Claire, Wisconsin, United StatesIt's a deceptive marketing scam to join their service, which apparently doesn't even renew your domain registration either (Even though it's written like one) It says:"We are not a domain registrar and we do not register or renew domain names"

It says "Marketing Services" in big bold letters in the upper right and "This is not a bill".

Look at the fine print (read section "Subscription Includes", it's a scam to trick you of course.

0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 5, 2022 by April 5, 2022an anonymous user from: Bath County, Carloover, Virginia, United StatesYep! Totally misleading! My site is not up for renewal until 2025 so it's bull. I like the one statement on the "bill" -- "Return by date above to avoid offer expiration." HAHAHAHAHA!It also says on the back page that this is "not a bill -- this is a solicitation."
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 4, 2022 by April 4, 2022an anonymous user from: Penn Hills Township, Penn Hills, Pennsylvania, United StatesComplete scam. This is slimy marketing for a "service" that will not benefit a business in any way.
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userApr 3, 2022 by April 3, 2022an anonymous user from: Waitsfield, Vermont, United StatesComplete scam, definitely. Do not pay anything. Yes, they do inform you - eventually - that "this is not a bill", merely a solicitation, but the first thing you see beside your address in big bold letters is "please remit payment". Misleading? Deliberately so? Of course.They are sending out thousands upon thousands of these letters, so clearly enough people are falling for this that they're making money hand over fist (and have no compunction about wasting huge amounts of paper).As others have pointed out here, this is not web hosting or domain name registration; it's merely having your website maybe listed on their website (that no-one knows to look at).Now to try their "Do Not Contact" system. We'll see.

They tried to get me to renew my domain for $289 - when it's only $17.99 on Dreamhost.comThey will send you PDF, which by the way is made from an image, not a word doc. It's not editable, so that is a clue also. I tried to use my PDF edit tool to copy & paste the address or the text of the bill, but I cannot edit it because it was never LEGITIMATELY made from an original document. They show a PO box in Henderson, NC.BEWARE!

0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userMar 27, 2022 by March 27, 2022an anonymous user from: Random Lake, Village of, Wisconsin, United StatesDomain Networks is a SCAM!! YOU DO NOT OWE THEM ANY MONEY. They send you a "bill" for a ridiculous amount of money to simply list your website, not to host it (which is what you probably thought at first). I doubt anyone looks at their directory, as other reviewers have stated. The most satisfying thing you can do is rip their bill up and throw it away.
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userMar 29, 2022 by March 29, 2022an anonymous user from: Downtown Redmond, Redmond, Washington, United StatesThank you, the invoice looked suspicious
0an anonymous userhttps://www.onlinethreatalerts.com/users/#an-anonymous-userMar 24, 2022 by March 24, 2022an anonymous user from: Mountain View, California, United StatesThey are a SCAM. If you read their "fine print" they clearly say they are a solicitation for listing and are not in the registration or renewal of domain names. Their solicitation makes you think you need to pay to keep your web address. In actuality you pay them and they "list" your company in their directory that no one uses. DO NOT PAY THEM ANYTHING!!!

I think they are just skimming domains, finding out who owns them and asking you to pay hoping you will just pay it.
