In Short:
I had very good experiences so far with Google Domains, now why don't they offer SSL certs?<p>TL;DR:
I use Google Domains to buy/transfer domains recently for friends and small clients which only need a basic website, and I have very good experiences with Google Domains.<p>It has very clean UI, very simple and easy to use, straightforward, no hassle, no bullshit.<p>Flat rate at $12 for .com domain per year, with Private registry for free.
($20 for .me domain, and might have limited TLD or a bit higher rate comparing to others, but still cheap)<p>No COUPON whatsoever, just flat rate for every year.<p>(I'm laughing at GoDaddy which trick you get x% discount on the first year and get much higher rate next year. And you keep getting emails about expiring domains/and discount codes if you wait till the last day.)<p>No upsale. It offers partners site like wix.com, weebly.com, squarespace.com if you want to host website there. Or you can use Google App engine or any VPS to host website.<p>Another benefit is to easily integrate the Gmail for Business/Google Apps for Work.<p>So, now, why don't offer SSL certificates?<p>They have our Gmail, Google+, and they have very good ideas about who we are and can easily verify our identifies, to issue a Class-2 or wild char Certs. Don't they?
