I used to have a really cheap domain from Namecheap before, and I used Cloudflare as my DNS. I’m going to buy a new domain, and Spaceship seems to be the cheapest registrar for my domain right now (I’m only buying for one year), however they seem really new. Are there any differences between Namecheap and Spaceship, and should I use one over the other?
Sorry to say I’ve never heard of spaceship, but wanted to make sure you know that Cloudflare now has a registrar service, so if you’re already using them for DNS, that might be worth a look for you.
And they do not markup domain prices. You pay what they pay.
It’s too expensive for me (Cloudflare is $10, and my options are $2).
What does your second year cost look like? Often $2 domains are only $2 in the first year.
I only buy one year at a time.
And then change to a different domain? Depending on the domain, you may not be able to renew it for another year for $2
Or pay a fee >$10 for transferring the domain to a different registrar.
What TLD is it?
xyz, because of the low price.
You probably won’t get the discount price for a transfer.
