A well-established Norwegian domain registrar with 25+ years of operational history, best suited for Scandinavian users needing affordable basic hosting; feature set is thin, support is limited to business hours, and a single Oslo data center makes it a poor fit for any non-European audience.

Pros and Cons

Here are the pros and cons of using Domainnameshop as your hosting platform.

Positives

Competitive and transparent pricing for European shared hosting with no intro/renewal bait-and-switch
25+ years operational track record as Norway's largest .no registrar with own infrastructure
100% renewable energy powering all servers, compliant with Norwegian Transparency Act

Negatives

Single data center in Oslo means high latency for users in Asia and no geographic failover
Support limited to Norwegian business hours with no live chat or 24/7 coverage
Miss Group parent company is reportedly preparing for sale in 2025, creating ownership and strategic uncertainty

Interesting facts

Discover the unique features that make Domainnameshop stand out

Domainnameshop holds over 45% market share for .no domain registrations and manages 650,000+ domains for 120,000+ customers with only 16 employees

Miss Group acquired Domeneshop AS in August 2024, and by doing so gained control of more than half the Norwegian .no domain market

The entry-level Web Light plan at USD 3.49/month does not support MySQL or PHP and is only suitable for static websites

Domainnameshop's rating Average / Mixed Provider

We rate features of services on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being the lowest rating and 5 being the highest rating. We also take into account the opinions of other users when rating features. We read user reviews and feedback to get a sense of how other people are using the features and what they think of them.

Usable but inconsistent. Some customers are satisfied while others report problems. Suitable for basic sites if you accept uncertainty and monitor closely.

Features
3 /5 Average

Four simple shared hosting plans with no VPS, CDN, or cloud options; entry-level plan lacks MySQL and PHP support entirely

Reliability
3.5 /5 Mostly credible

25+ years of continuous operation with own data center connected to NIX, but single Oslo location with no geo-redundancy

User Experience
3.5 /5 Good

Clean self-service portal in four languages with straightforward pricing, but uses proprietary control panel not widely reviewed

Support
2 /5 Below average

Phone and email support limited to Norwegian business hours on weekdays; no live chat, no 24/7, next-business-day email response off-hours

Pricing
3.5 /5 Affordable

Competitive pricing for Europe with no deceptive intro/renewal gap, but domain renewal billed separately and USD prices fluctuate monthly with exchange rates

Promotions
1.5 /5 Small discount

No publicly available promo codes, discount campaigns, or free trial offers found across any review platform or community source

Other Factors
2.5 /5 Average

100% renewable energy is a genuine positive, but 16-employee team serving 120k customers and Miss Group ownership uncertainty are material risks

i have recieved in last month atleast several repeat scam emails ( phishing some of them ) that have a link to the domainnameshop sites they manage ( domain host )
i report said spam to them and get the following
more concerned that i reported the "spam " to them and seemt o think if i put more than one complaint in "im bombing them" or harrasing them
claim they cant find any link ( only takes under 10 seconds to see the link )
pretty much tell me they dont care and stop reporting
recap--- they dont care that spam, malicious sites ( by link ) are being used that they host
and will do nothing about any such reports but blame you for reporting it while they claim "nothing to see here"
