Ask HN: Best Domain Registrar?

4 pointsby cpr10 months ago
I&#x27;ve got domains scattered around various registrars, mostly Godaddy, whom I loathe.<p>Any suggestions for the best place to consolidate?

Might depend on what you want.<p>Cost<i>+service - <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;porkbun.com" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;porkbun.com</a><p>Service+extras+non-US - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;netim.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;netim.com</a><p>Privacyish - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;njal.la&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;njal.la&#x2F;</a><p></i> While cloudflare&#x27;s a few cents cheaper, not giving freedom to set DNS is a no-go and not worth those few cents. I&#x27;m also not that interested in further cloudflare tracking.<p>AWS: Route53 apparently works better with AWS&#x27;s SES (cheap emailing). But that&#x27;s what a friend says, I don&#x27;t use AWS.<p>I&#x27;d suggest not to consolidate unless you&#x27;ve good reason to put all your eggs in one basket.<p>A good topic for me to look out for other options and reasons for them.

I dunno, my buddy told me about PorkBun, so I switch over from Hover. I like the ease of use; it is just simple, I think, to get the things done I need done with my domains so I can move on with my day.

Porkbun is very nice. I moved all my domains to it.

I use cloudflare because they&#x27;re a few bucks cheaper than most places. But I also hear good things about porkbun.

If your hosting on AWS anyway, you can&#x27;t go wrong with Route 53.<p>I find AWS to be the most straightforward...
