where do you guys register and manage www domains?

Porkbun

Namecheap has been fine for me so far. Avoid godaddy.

I’ve been on namecheap for a long time. They have a sale going on now. But they are really good, hardly ever a problem and if there is, their customer service is stellar.

I have had a really good experience with Porkbun. You could also use Cloudflare. But since this is going to be work-related, Cloudflare all of the way.

I use namecheap -- I got my two most recent domains for less than $8 apiece -- but I hear good things about Google domains as well.

Cloudflare registrar or Porkbun are my goto's. Keep in mind that Cloudflare registrar currently requires you to use their (free) DNS service, you can't change the nameservers yet.

My main domain registrar is namecheap and my second for personal email is ionos. No issues thus far.

Cloudflare domains is decent but doesn't support many domains, porkbun is my next choice and I used to use Google domains.

European folks try EUKhost. Been good for me the last few years.

I use porkbun since they take crypto as payment

I use Google Domains, but I believe they're either getting rid of it or selling it off.

I have one (including hosting) at a local German provider and one (dynamic DNS based forwarding to my homelab) at another German provider.

Both are in the market for 20+ years and neither of them had any controversies or major issues.

Gandi

I personally do all my hosting with tsohost.

Name.com is great! They’re local to my area and have always been fantastic to deal with. I’ve used godaddy, Google, name cheap and wouldn’t recommend any of them

joker.com is pretty good (despite the shady name).

Edit: purely dns registrars AFAIK, no hosting.

For personal domain registrar I use Hostpoint, because Swiss privacy.

If it's for work, AWS Route 53.

I just used google, but you can use pretty much any big service (they are all priced similarly) if you are worried about scamminess. I also didn’t feel like being harassed for “website builders” or the other crap smaller providers try to sell.

Haven't done it since a very long time ago so probably there are better players out there now, but Gandi or GoDaddy maybe? I'd lookup their reviews (especially the negative ones) on Trustpilot to see all the gotchas.

Namecheap and Namesilo are both good.

Godaddy is the big one that I’ve heard of.

Disclaimer: I’ve never registered or managed a domain. I just remember their commercials from back in the day.
