Been using the registrar for so long now, happy to make a video on it!
Here is a full video from adding a domain to Cloudflare then transferring it over as well.
I did have to blur quite a lot of my details out throughout the video, but did my best to cover all the main points.
Thanks for this video, Stephan. What are the additional benefits of transferring a domain besides cost? What other features do you get here at Cloudflare above and beyond GoDaddy? Do you need a paid Cloudflare account to take advantage of these features?
I just really like it for putting everything I do in one place. The DNS, domain ownership, and all the other Cloudflare features are all on the same site. I have been using Cloudflare Access quite a lot and if you don’t have a large team or the need for paid features then it has a really nice free plan.
There will always be advantages to using the paid plans but it comes down to the features you need. Currently, I have one domain running on the Business plan and the rest are on the free plan. Never had any issues with the free plan and it has all the basic features most people need. Personally, I have always had issues with GoDaddy and other domain registrars due to the constant advertising and paid services that are really not required. Cloudflare is straight to the point and I have never been asked once to pay for privacy.
