I wouldn't have cared much about Domain Name Register just a week ago, but after what happen at Zoho, and all the horror story in the comments section from namecheap and others, Cloudflare Registar couldn't come at a better time.

I really wish Cloudflare at least made $1 or $2 Gross Profits per domain. Who paids for Domain Register Support? I would much rather be a "customer" than I am not sure where they are making money from my Domain.

P.S - If those were wholesale price, do other companies get heavy discount for signing up in bulks? How do other companies made money when they are selling it for $0.99 or $6.99

Interesting that no one here has mentioned Google Domains:

- It has no up-sells

- I trust Google's security more than Cloudflare's

- It has decent customer support, unlike some of Google's other products

Aside from the price, one very good reason to be interested in CloudFlare as a registrar compared to Google Domains is that CloudFlare supports CNAME flattening [1] so that you can use a CNAME instead of an IP address for an A record (AKA "ALIAS" on DNSimple or Route53).

I'm using Google Domains right now, but have been using CloudFlare to host my DNS for ages for this reason alone. I'll think about transferring my domains to them when the time comes to take one service out of the equation.

Note that if you're cnaming to some thing that is doing dns based load balancing or Geo targeting, introducing flattening in the middle may reduce the ability of your provider to do those things.
