Due to complaints from Verisign, we have now added some restrictions to the API:

"For COM/NET domains, you can only check or register the same domain 10 times every 100 seconds. "

>But I see, that Snapnames may send to Verisign registry thousands queries without limitations

Hey, if you want dynadot to compete with snap, be sure to tell them you'll fund the creation of 1000's of "boutique" registrars so Dynadot can pool their registry connections for you.

Why do I still have restrictions on the API?

Why.Cn also limit?

Yep.  That's lame!

yeah this is BS dynadot.  We have spent a lot of money for these API account.

At least ease up a little more, how about 20 checks per 100 seconds?

Definitely don't forget iTime Marketing.

Domains I've dropped have been registered by them within a couple or few seconds - must be sending requests 24/7.

This is pretty crappy. I think it's time we get the API users to contact Verisign for the fact that Enom, Snap, Namescout, BuyDomains, and all these others sending many more requests. Happy to know I still know other registrars with API

Time to find a new registrar I guess. Harsh, but that's reality. This sucks.

10 times per 100 seconds for every user, everyone at Dynadot, or every single registrar?

it is Unfortunately

too slowly! how can VS enom or snapnames.com ? :(
