The company's reputation is marked by a stark divide in customer experiences. On one hand, some clients commend the quality of specific services, particularly in web design and SEO assistance, highlighting instances of exceptional customer support. However, a significant number of reviews reveal persistent issues, including slow response times, inadequate technical support, and billing disputes, which contribute to a growing sense of frustration among long-term users. Overall, while there are positive interactions, the prevailing sentiment underscores a troubling decline in service quality and reliability, prompting many customers to seek alternatives.

The customer service agent literally brought me to tears She was so frustrating, manipulative, and unhelpful. It was clear she was getting sadistic pleasure in not helping me and hearing me suffer. I am astounded at the clear lack of effort or care for their customers. I was on the phone for roughly 50 minutes and still got no resolution. I had to hang up and hope to contact someone else. Now Im wondering why I even put up with the 50mins of abuse.
I thought their finance dept seemed iffy... should have gone with my gut and not gotten involved with this company!

Avoid Logoyes.com it is a scam and they will take your money without any sort of agreement. DO NOT GIVE CREDIT INFO TO BUILD YOUR LOGO. Find a credible site! There is no one at the other end of the phone line to help with the charges either.
I paid less than $4 then before a month they charged $31. They said will refund my money never did. This company deserve to be out of bussiness. I will make a complain to BBB. Please do it too.

The design tool have bugs, the advertised price is not respected ( 33 us$ instead of 23 can$). And they keep bugging you with add-ons without ever saying the price of those add-ons... definitely not recommend this hosting (would give 1/4 star if i could)

Be aware site is taking money away. Just got billed 9.99 for nothing. I created a logo a year ago, which I fully paid, not I got a subscription charge of $9.99... This is ridiculous they never disclosed this upfront when I signed. Be Aware... there are many users around the world with same issue.
Was billed $3.95 first month and second month $39.95. Never could set up site and was hard to cancel. Never got refund as they said they would credit my card. Stay away from these people.

$2.95 a month for a site, with hosting? And these "business" people are complaining! What do you expect! Like the schmucks who complain that there is not enough beef in their 60 cent taco. As the owner of a successful development, marketing and hosting company, I say "thank you" web.com for absorbing these something-for-nothing "customers."
We appreciate your 5-star rating, Lyle. We do our very best to provide a broad range of quality products and services at an exceptional value, and do serve millions of satisfied customers every day.
Sincerely,

My experience has been terrible overall and I can give many specific examples. Their support team is ineffective to say the least because it is so inconsistent. If you use their paid my time support you are left on an island with broken promises. If you try to get support for the work that my time did you get nowhere with the regular support folks because they will not even comment on work done by my time support. It is as if the my time support people are some special elite group of untouchables within the organization. If you have a business site that you need to have up stay away from web.com and network solutions.com. And most of all do not use their professional services at my time support.
Update 7/14/15 - on hold for over 30 minutes can't get technical support on the line for a simple question. If you make a living with your website or you need to support one avoid this as you will waste enormous amounts of time just trying to contact a resource to answer simple questions. On top of this their help directory seems to be in a flux. I call one number and get a person from mytime support and they cannot even tell me what other numbers to call for server related function questions. My experiences with this company have amounted to a black hole of wasted time with very few exceptions. PS nice touch in posting the canned response to complaints.
We are sorry to hear this Eton, but do appreciate your comments and value your opinion.

If I could rate it zero star, I would. It start off with making a small harmless logo for US 0.99. In the order confirmation, they threw in this website starter kit with 1 year free subscription. I did not even notice that was included until I started having this recurring charge from them a year later. You see, they did not even send you an invoice when they started making the charge after one year. In that order confirmation, nothing was mentioned about the amount that will be charged after a year. They were probably hoping consumers will take as little notice about the free kit as possible so they would be able to quietly charge us at least a couple of times before we notice.
So no notice was given and they ARE just happily charging your card. And when you wish to terminate the subscription, guESS what, there is no cancel subscription button, neither was there an email address provided. When I finally found an email address and wrote to them, they insisted I have to call in to cancel. I am living on the other side of the globe. This is ultra inconvenient for me, not to mention the hefty phone charges I would incur (toll free only in US, I still have to pay international call charges). I changed my Amex card and yesterday I saw a fresh new charGE from them. I am letting Amex handle this.
Folks, avoid giving your financial details to their website. You would have alot of sh*t to clear after that. There are many other reputable logomaking websites around.
Alas, we did not go on this page until AFTER our negative experience with Web.com. We were promised a rate of $2.95 -- and since we designed the website ourselves, there was little beyond domain hosting that they provided. Month #2 our rate jumped to $32.95 -- without warning or explanation. Beware. These folks are fraudulent.

"Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get." Forest Gump. That's how it is with web dot coms designers. Some are good and some are horrible. I had some really good people help me with the design of my site and then today some Bozo at web dot com butchered my site. When I called to have this issue addressed I was told to wait. It is now the weekend.
Dear Tom T.,
We are sorry to hear about your experience and hope you were able to resolve this issue with our team. We do value all feedback, positive or negative.

They already stole $169 from my account. I already filed a claim with my bank, got a new debit card and reported it to every single consumer bureau I can reach. A Class action suit should be filed against these scammers. Their address is ******* Gran Bay Parkway, West, Jacksonville, FL ******* and they are part of web.com (Coincidentally I live in Jacksonville and my work place is close to their building, I'm thinking to make them pay those 170 bucks in a different way!).
My husband paid $250 to have web.com create a Facebook page for his personal training business. Not only did it look like crap but they did not do what they promised to. They were supposed to send out automatic reoccurring posts, which NEVER happened. He tried to get a refund numerous times and not one person acted like they even cared... this is a SCAM! Terrible company, after looking at all the horrible reviews I'm sure they won't last too long.
Dear Lisa,

I paid them $40 for a logo, which I can't insert the usual way into an Outlook e-mail signature, and, as others have noted, there's no way to contact them.
Register.com charged us for an extra year ONLY because they had delayed the transfer of a domain past the renewal date. After every one of 4 phone calls, they assured us that they would refund the $48.00 in fees for that extra year we didn't need.
Now more than 2 months later, they still haven't refunded the money that promised they would after every one of 4 phone calls to them. It's just the same old game of stall, stall, stall and see if they will go away. In the end, if I ever do get my money back, it'll have cost me way more than $48 in my time.
There are plenty of other inexpensive Registrars out there. I'm not here to promote them. I'm just warning you about these guys. They just want your money and they don't care if they give you anything in return.

Salesperson will tell you that they'll make sure your listing gets completed with hundreds of search engines. With promises it'll take about two months.
After 6 weeks, ONE search engine has been worked on and a number showing "submitted".
Their "Dashboard" was wrong to begin with, and doesn't show much progress.
C'mon, I know they've filled out one form to submit to the 20+ search engine forms.
When trying to find out more information, was told that the team that does such things are independent and could not be reached by a customer.
Now stating that 3 months is the goal to see results (at about $100.00/month) and that "We'll keep it updated on a regular basis to keep everything current"
I asked how I get my listings back when I stop using their service, and was told I'd have to go through the process of each site to claim them back, hat they wouldn't share their passwords for ownership of the site. This is HIJACKING! I thought they'd use their interfaces to quickly update a number of search site, but instead they'll slowly do it stringing you along and then not share the ownership.
About December of 2013 they decided that they didn't want to maintain their very first websites called first step websites so they just "dumped" them with no warning. They are gone. You never got a chance to try to save them, to upgrade them,... nothing. A lot of folks work was trashed and lost. That's not the kind of website that you want to trust to protect your data but I'm not yet sure that any other such website is any better.
Register.com seem to be a very big business operating out of the U.S. whilst they do appear to have lots of 'satisfied' customers they also have many who they have hacked off - I'm one of them! Do not sign up for any of their services without reviewing their criticism on a number of sites on the web including Sitejabber. I am having on-going problems with them taking unauthorised payments from my CC account. Even the CC company seem unable to stop them. Once they have your account details they will persistently take your money and you will not be able to prevent it.Be warned!
One year after you get your 99 cent "free" logo, charges will start appearing from this company on your credit card statement. They claim it's for a website starter kit that you agreed to try free for a year (and then pay $9.99/month for) - something hidden in the small print when you buy your logo. Call your credit card company right away to dispute the charges or they will never stop. I bought two logos and they claimed I had two accounts with them (but both under the same email with a single password), so I was actually seeing a $9.99 charge TWICE every month. STAY AWAY from this dishonest company. A 99 cent logo isn't worth the headache.
Answer: We are located in Australia and trying to make contact is virtually impossible. They don't respond to emails, Calling them is an expensive international phone call, The time zone is completely different so I had to call at some ungodly hour of the morning, they are not friendly and find dealing with customers a big pain. They offer no real value and have no idea of what customer service is.
Answer: I had to ring my credit card company and get them to stop the payment
Answer: I was working with a consultant from the Small Business Development Center when I began my business. She advised me to register my LLC and then to go to Register.com to buy the domain name before anyone else could. Later on, she suggested Register when I was looking for hosting.
