Similar to my post about Canadian web hosting a few weeks back, I’m looking for Canadian registrar(s) that you’ve personally used and wholeheartedly recommend. Ideally something with cheap transfers. Thank you kindly.
Try asking over at !buycanadian@lemmy.ca, you might get more responses there
I’ve been using EasyDNS for like 20 years now I think. A long ti e at any rate. They’re based out of Etobicoke.
I’ve used canhost recently and can’t complain - they offered fairly cheap .ca domains compared to what I could find elsewhere.
Thanks! This is who I ended up going with.
I just switched my .ca domains to canspace.ca. They were the chespest I found for Canadian domains. Had to contact them, they had a fast response time and they were helpful. I had a .cc domain too, but I decided I wasn’t renewing it and swapped for a .ca instead.
I used to go directly through CIRA 20 years ago, but while very reliable, that route is also very expensive (and I’m not sure if they even function directly as a registrar still - their website suggests they do). On the plus side, using CIRA directly helps fund their operations.
Hover.ca’s been mine… uh, I think they’re Canadian .never mind, Thanks to puppinstuff for the correctiondeleted by creator
I’ve used webnames myself and it’s worked out pretty well.
$21 per domain for transfers is pretty pricey though. Thanks!
BareMetal Domain hosting. Super basic but also cheap
I had a blog on Wordpress who did the registrar stuff but then the trade war kicked off, I reached out to many different hosting companies and gave it a few days. The only one who got back to me was HostHero, they host my blog and my email addresses as well as deal with the registrar stuff.
