I migrated my domain to Cloudflare and moved my mail host from gmail to iCloud. I still use google sites as a web host since it’s free hosting and brain dead building but I used google domains for the cheap domain and integrated mail and web hosting with my Google one sub.
What’s a good place to get/hold domains these days?
Cloudflare if they have the TLD you want/need (their pricing has no markup). There’s also Namecheap and Porkbun. Sometimes they have sales that can make it cheaper.
Recently used Porkbun for a .xyz domain for reverse proxy / DNS challenge. Price was about 2-3CAD$ for the first year, renewal at +/-10CAD$/year. My usage is pretty simple, but it’s been great so far.
Got an email from them about some domains. They say it won’t happen for “at least a month” as the transaction closes and migration begins. They also said:
Squarespace has publicly committed to continue to utilize Google Cloud DNS infrastructure, meaning reliability and performance regarding DNS will remain unchanged during the migration. The purchase is currently subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions. Upon the closing of the transaction, your domain account will be owned by Squarespace but you will continue to manage your domain(s) via Google Domains as you do today, with Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service continuing to apply.
