I used : Low Cost Names to get my .org, .org.uk and .me.uk domains - very cheap and very quick.

There is nothing to stop you from purchasing from america either..

Hiding of registration details is only truly possible on .co.uk and other nic.uk addresses.

.com you can leave the fields blank.

I use UK2.net, seem pretty cheap to me. They have some nice functionality for administering multiple domains that is useful to me.

i want to hide details because of rival sites and 'enemies', they can trace up the registrant and start spamming directly where they live. some people actually do this the lowlives.

cheers guys for ur advice. will have a look

You need http://www.domainsbyproxy.com/ You can also use it to buy domains through GoDaddy, but retaining your privacy. I've never done it, but i've seen it on a whois.

Edit: You can also do it through GoDaddy here: https://www.godaddy.com/gdshop/faq/f...&topic=Domains

UKreg.com seemed cheap enough.

Don't just look at the registration price, look at how much it'll cost to transfer out should you ever want to move to another registrar. I used to use EasyNames but now use 123-reg - EasyNames charge massive fees to transfer the domain to another (123-reg) - I was glad I only had two domains with them!
