I've just been looking at buying some domains, and the GetDotted prices are not particularly competitive - particularly on .uk domains.
For example, you have .co.uk and .me.uk domains at £15.99 + VAT for two years, whereas a certain other registrar (who I won't mention here) have them for £2.95 per year + VAT, or £5.90 + VAT (£6.93) for two years.
Others, such as .com, you have for £25.99 + VAT for two years, whereas this other company has them for £9 per year + VAT, or £21.15 inc. VAT for two years.
Okay, you do offer discounts for simultaneous purchases, but these prices from the other site are for single domains.
Just thought you may like to know, in case you want to consider lowering some of your prices.

You only get unlimited space because you have to upload via dial-up, so no-one is going to upload massive files.
Notice that the new Freeola ADSL package - where you can upload larger files because of the speed - is restricted to just 25Mb of webspace!
I presume that a paid package for existing broadband customers (if it ever happens!) will be similar, so I'm currently considering the FastHosts personal account.

They're just making you pay for the hosting in other ways, bit extra on the domains, traffic on their site (which can in term lead you to buying something). The hosting is just a loss leader of sorts really.

How many e-mail accounts do you get with Freeola?
They are very good prices considering you get unlimited space!! and php, they seem like very good prices.
UKreg.co.uk has domains for around £2 for 2 years!! but no hosting.

But also, take into account that hosting comes with it. Where as some others only have pointers on the Domain.
