Before you choose
Weigh upfront and renewal charges
Before committing, see whether a registrar includes a free plan or trial. Treat the starting paid price and the renewal amount separately because they apply to different stages of the purchase.
Check the domain endings
Review the TLDs offered when a particular domain ending matters to you. A registrar's available endings can shape which name you can register.
Assess privacy and DNS options
WHOIS privacy can help keep registration details private. DNSSEC support adds a security setting to consider when comparing registrars.
Match the management tools
API access can suit automated domain work, while bulk management can help with multiple domain changes. Check for these capabilities before choosing.
Choose a platform you can use
Access is available through combinations of web, API, iOS, Android, Windows and Linux, depending on the registrar. Pick the methods that fit how you manage domains.
