No one has mentioned it yet, but I've found Google Domains to be quite pleasant.
No fuss, and the pricing is reasonable. They do email forwarding, and a few other things, but otherwise is just a basic registrar/dns provider.
Since the whole SOPA/PIPA fiasco, I've been moving all my domains from GoDaddy to Google Domains as they expire.
- scrollaway 10y agoGoogle Domains isn't available in every country, and has poor TLD coverage. As for SOPA/PIPA those were my main initial drivers towards Gandi. They were one of the first to be vocally against SOPA and to offer massive discounts for godaddy transfers.
- ceejayoz 10y agoI worry about Google Domains and any inadvertent (or false-positive) TOS violation in any of their other services nuking my domains.
- dingaling 10y agoCan't you just create additional, unassociated Google Accounts? It's probably good practice for any registrar anyhow. I ended-up doing this for GANDI after receiving this out of the blue: It is very important that you confirm that your email address works and that we can reach you at this address. If we do not get your confirmation, the domain names that are associated with this email address will be deactivated on 2016-08-12 Consider that if the e-mail address hadn't worked then I wouldn't have had any domains after a week and wouldn't have known why. Not a risk that I can accept. So I split each domain onto a new 'handle' so that there's less risk of total loss, and now I am planning to spread across other registrars.
- jlgaddis 10y agoPretty sure that's a new (recent) ICANN thing that all registrars will be doing eventually (confirmation of data in WHOIS).
