What is a Good place to host a ".by" domain?

I’ve registered a ”.by” domain from 101domain.com. In short, they’re terrible. I have since learned that my $99 fee to register would have been $29 on domain.by. Also, 101domain takes FOREVER to get buck to me on any customer service issue. SO in short, I want to switch.

My question is: I have this ”.by” that I want to turn into a website, my problem is that the hosting websites that I use (mediatemple, godaddy, startlogic) don’t allow me to transfer a ”.by” so my hosting is sort of separated.

I’ve tried setting up the name servers at 101domain but it doesn’t seem to work and 101domain is just so unhelpful.

Anyone know of good places I can transfer my ”.by” to that will work well with my hosting options? Preferably an American company? Or if my question at all shows how clueless I a really am to all this it would help me out a lot to just have basic information on how these websites like bit.ly manage to register a domain from another country yet still find very reliable hosting that will recognize the domain.

I am not looking to just redirect my ”.by” to another website. Lets assume I’m trying to create a URL shortening site like bit.ly (I’m not)
