MODERATORS
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 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'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.
~~Hover.ca’s been mine.. uh, I think they’re Canadian .~~ never mind, Thanks to puppinstuff for the correction
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.
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.
I've used webnames myself and it's worked out pretty well.
$21 per domain for transfers is pretty pricey though. Thanks!
