Can I register domains at godaddy for $2 and point the nameservers to bluehost? I never liked godaddy because their website is so unncessearily complicated....

yes you can you'll have to point the nameservers to ns1.bluehost.com;
ns2.bluehost.com but just register them with bluehost and make it easy on yourself

How much does bluehost charge for a domain name? Is there a domain manager? I usually register a new domain name for a new business idea every month.. I currently pay $13/year with a different company but that is getting too expensive.

I believe they're $10 with new domains and yes they have a wonderful domain manager. really better then others that I have had to deal with including godaddy.

yup. the domain manager is there. usually i login to cpanel, and the domain manager is under the 'domain' column. click on it will go to domain manager with list of your current domains/addon.. you can do domain information updates and also domain transfer from here. nice.

I prefer godaddy for domains - but for nothing else. You jsut change the nameservers to ns1.whatever and ns2.whatever for a reseller and ns1.bluehost and ns2.bluehost for regular hosting

I have the same issue with a domain registered at godaddy.com and want to have all my hosting here at bluehost under one contract.
Just three two more questions:
1) in order that my domain will be visible here do i have to add it under add-on domain?
2) how can i tell the system that domain
aaa.com should look into folder aaaa
bbb.com should look into folder bbb
ccc.eu should look into folder ccc (this is the
domain registered under godaddy with DNS showing to bluehost
3) Is it planned that .eu domains will be added also for transfers to bluehost.
currently you only get error msg: .eu domains are not supported.
thnx

Once you have updated the nameservers for those domains to point to Bluehost you can then configure addon domains for them. You specify the folder name when you create the addon domain. If you want to set it up before changing the nameservers (if already hosted elsewhere) then ask support to set up the addon domains for you.
