Namecheap

Namecheap is a domain registrar offering competitive pricing with WHOIS privacy included rather than sold as an upsell.

Included privacy matters: without it your name, address and phone number are published in public WHOIS records, and registrars that charge for hiding this are charging for something that should be default.

Watch renewal pricing rather than first-year promotional rates — the gap between them is where registrars make their margin, and transferring away later costs time.
