I’m using DuckDNS currently, but am hoping to up my game with Caddy etc and want my own domain with more than the 5 subdomains. Any recommendations for providers?
I used Google Domains for many years.
I think mostly because it came as a package with my Google Workspace account.
But the whole "selling their domain accounts to Squarespace and not even bothering to notify us kind of turned me off to them.
I am now happily using Cloudflare instead.
Frankly I don’t miss it.
The rates seem a tiny bit cheaper and the API/etc is far more advanced.
I suspect I will be much happier with Cloudflare in the long run
Dynadot offers free .link domains.

Just go Cloudflare. The dot.win told they have is incredible value ~3$ per annum if i remember correctly.
Other pros of using Cloudflare:
- Cloudflare ddns
- Cloudflare tunnels
- Cloudflare proxy
It does a a few cons, like not being able to use custom nameservers if you aren’t paying 200$ a month. Also the fact of Cloudflare being an internet gatekeeper may not be to your liking.
