godaddy is the worst, their scammy salespeople call you for renewal offers and shit, irritating. For me, namecheap, cloudflare, porkbun.

domains.google
Used to use bigrock for certain TLDs but absolutely detest it. They don't even have 2FA afaik. For DNS hosting, NearlyFreeSpeech has been working flawlessly for years now.

I tried zeit but it doesn't accept sbi debit card, same with Google domains, finally brought one from chennai based ewallhost
I had to buy another domain the same day and the customer had axis bank debit card and it worked on google domains

credit cards are good for users too because they provide fraud protection.

@rough-autumn-89795 would love to know more about the scammy part of godaddy. This came as a surprise

@many-minister-78351 They don’t necessarily β€œscam” you, but they try very hard to oversell you. For eg, if you buy a domain and it’s due in sometime, their operators will repeatedly call you to renew it using their link (so they get a commission) unless you do the renewal or cancel the renewal. This comes as a frustration because often you are not ready at that particular moment to perform the transaction so they call again, and again, and again. I think if you purchase .com and other international domains from godaddy, it comes off as slightly expensive too so that’s another reason.

Got it. Agree I absolutely hate that. It makes me want to never renew with the provider again

GoDaddy's pricing plans are convoluted as hell... Most of the time the price they quote is not the actual price of the offering.... They ask you to pay more for keeping your info anonymous (whois protection) and even more for stopping someone else from renewing you domain in their name... This is given for free in Google domains and their pricing is always straight forward. That has been my experience at least until now. But in my experience, Google domains do cost more (2x or even 3x) that GoDaddy and other services

True that as well. Porkbun is amazing in that regard, cheapest of all, lots of free addons.

@abundant-jackal-54634 @creamy-dawn-73235 yay 😁
@calm-grass-85557 for real though, this group is special. I am a member of other communities (paid/free) as well but I don’t communicate there, maybe since most people are foreigners. This group feels like home. πŸ˜ƒ
