I have to do it for work and I’ve got no idea, there seem to be so many scammy looking sites
Porkbun
I’ve been on namecheap for a long time. They have a sale going on now. But they are really good, hardly ever a problem and if there is, their customer service is stellar.
Namecheap has been fine for me so far. Avoid godaddy.

Go Daddy. The name alone is just plain creepy.

I use namecheap – I got my two most recent domains for less than $8 apiece – but I hear good things about Google domains as well.
Google sold their domains (and customers in the process to, I think it was square space)… Definitely just go with namecheap, they support the EFF, have a good website, and reasonable prices
I have had a really good experience with Porkbun. You could also use Cloudflare. But since this is going to be work-related, Cloudflare all of the way.
Cloudflare registrar or Porkbun are my goto’s. Keep in mind that Cloudflare registrar currently requires you to use their (free) DNS service, you can’t change the nameservers yet.
Cloudflare 100%
My main domain registrar is namecheap and my second for personal email is ionos. No issues thus far.
Cloudflare domains is decent but doesn’t support many domains, porkbun is my next choice and I used to use Google domains.
I use Google Domains, but I believe they’re either getting rid of it or selling it off.
I may have misheard it but arent they already? I believe Linus anf Luke from LTT talked about it on the WAN show
Not too sure-- I remember receiving emails for my accounts-- but I just checked domains and it’s still up, allowing you to purchase more.
That will probably end like Stadia. One team in the works of producing a game while management is already deciding how to close down the project…
cough https://killedbygoogle.com/ and https://9to5google.com/2023/06/15/google-domains-squarespace/ * cough*
And yep Google Domains is on the guillotine. Better secure it quickly.
I use porkbun since they take crypto as payment
Good to know. They didn’t accept an mc gift card
European folks try EUKhost. Been good for me the last few years.
Gandi
I have one (including hosting) at a local German provider and one (dynamic DNS based forwarding to my homelab) at another German provider.
Both are in the market for 20+ years and neither of them had any controversies or major issues.
joker.com is pretty good (despite the shady name).
Edit: purely dns registrars AFAIK, no hosting.
I personally do all my hosting with tsohost.
I used to use them, then they hiked my ultra cheap deal up by 700%, so screw them.
