There’s a middle ground: don’t use your registrar as your DNS provider. You can use Google Cloud’s DNS while using Squarespace as the registrar, avoiding any problems with Squarespace’s DNS service being subpar.
- smitty1e 2y agoHaha, I thought your handle was "amazon", and I'm wondering: why aren't you pimping Route53?
- skeeter2020 2y agofunny - for many TLDs isn't this exactly what you get if you register a domain with Amazon? I know they are the ICANN registrar for some, but many you use say, Gandi and get an auto Route53 zone setup.
- toddmorey 2y agoInterestingly, that's how squaresapce left my DNS (pointing to google NS) after the migration.
- numbsafari 2y agoThis is how I’ve almost always done things. I don’t like making changes with my registrar very often and I don’t like having everyone need access. So keeping their services limited reduces the security scope.
- Ir0nMan 2y agoThis. Separate the tasks. Always use one provider as your domain registrar (ex: NameSilo) and another provider for your DNS (ex: Cloudflare).
