It’s 2007 and I’m hearing this still. Web designers or web hosting companies holding their client’s domain name and websites hostage. So let’s get this straight, when a client asks the professional individual or company to register a domain name and pays for it in full, the client owns it and they can do what they want with it. Charge them if you must for transferring it to another hosting company.
Also when you are hosting a client’s website and they are paying you that monthly hosting fee that you are making at least 200% profit from the get go, they are entitled to full access to all the information that comes with the hosting package via a username and password access so their programmers can do what they want back there. Playing on client ignorance is not an competive advantage and is so 1998! And clients grow some cajones, get educated about your rights so when these guys mess with you, you can send email campaigns to your friends and colleagues telling them what happened to you.
