What's the cheapest place to buy a domain?

Discussion in 'Domain Names' started by Nathan047, Mar 13, 2017.

    I'm thinking about getting a custom domain for my email and I'm looking for the place that will offer me the cheapest domain I can get. Please give me the cost of renewing the domain every year (I don't care if the first year is 0.01$ if the second and beyond is 30$).

    To be clear I'm just looking for a legit place to get the cheapest domain I can get (dosn't need to be .com). I am, however, looking to "own" the domain (not like .tk or sub domains).

    If you plan to host it and choose lifetime hosting, you can get a free domain. Lifetime hosting is a one-time payment then hosted for life. The only drawback that I've found is it's limited storage space.

    Most of my domains are currently registered with Namecheap. My .com domains run $13.75 a year. That includes WhoIs protection. Some of their other extensions are cheaper. The prices do vary for the different extensions.

    I do not know what you mean WhoIs protection. In Zoho has the protection of personal data. For consumers may include IP address, verification - whether it's human or robot.
    Hosting is on Zoho and is free. I'm not paying for hosting Zoho, moreover 10 $ domain for one year. There Cart Contents products, you can add buttons for automatic payment, but they is paid extra.

    I wasn't specific enough. Sorry. I meant WhoIs protection. ICAAN offers a WhoIs service where you can enter a URL to find out who own that domain.

    With WhoIs protection, the hosting service fields those inquiries without exposing your information and forwards the query on to you if any questions need answers.

    From what you said it looks like the personal data is protected but maybe not called WhoIs protection. Is that included in the $10 per year domain fee?

    Yes, protection is included in this $ 10 fee year domain.

    Wrong Whois information indicates the owner of the registered person, company or name. You can try different sites. There is some protection, but not what you wrote.

    When you open the page of the site, above which is written before https: There Lock, There protection when the site is protected. When the site is not protected there (!) and wrote that the site no protection. Such protection There in Zoho hosting services and it is included in the 10 $ fee year domain.

    Whois will display the registrant/name holder if it is not protected. When the domain has whois protection it will not show the registrant's information.

    For instance if you go to ICAAN's whois lookup site and enter one of my whois protected domains you will see the following:

    I think thus limiting your site visitors to connect with you, especially by email. But it's your decision to pay whois protection. I am talking about protection, which protects the site where there are passwords or credit card users. For me it is important such protection. Such protection There in Zoho hosting services and it is included in the 10 $ fee year domain.

    It seems that you are looking for an SSL Certificate to include some short of an encryption under your website when dealing with passwords and credit cards. The price for an SSL Certificate can depend on the type, issuer, encryption, features but you can find some cheap/basic SSL Certificates for 10$-12$ per year.

    If you are also on a cPanel Server you can try their Auto-SSL Certificate which comes free of charge.

    I understand now. We're talking about two different types of protection. I didn't get your meaning originally. I don't personally think the whois protection limits email connection potential. They still only have to send one email message. It then gets forwarded to me.

    tsak. I think SSL certificates will gain importance especially since Google is now giving higher importance to https sites over http.

    Depends on Several Things.
    You can get a info domain at namecheap for about 88 cent including private whois for the first year for free. The second year the cost for both will be much higher. And this is the way the most registrars act
