Ask HN: Where should I look to get a domain?
2 points by cafard on Nov 15, 2024 | hide | past | favorite | 7 comments
I want a domain for person use, minor projects. I'd rather not pay a great deal for it. Whom do you recommend?


Here is a site that lists prices and renewals. It is not a comprehensive list, but it is a long list. https://tld-list.com/

Renewals is where many registrars 'get' you. Prices can jump considerably.

I have had domains from many providers, the only one which ripped me off via 'dark patterns' was GoDaddy, which cost me $400 for a one year one page website and domain name.


I just bought a 1.111b domain from Spaceship for 67 cents a year. They are [0-9]{6,9}\.xyz , i.e. 6 to 9 numbers under the .xyz TLD.


Cloudflare. Their dashboard UI is awesome and fast and the DNS updates are really fast. Especially for 1.1.1.1 users.


Porkbun is my new favorite.

Name.com, keysystems, porkbun
