Name.com Introduction
Name.com is situated in Denver, Colorado and has been giving area name enrollment and facilitating since 2003. They are a completely claimed auxiliary of Right side. They are likewise an ICANN-licensed space name enlistment center, and they mean to give a-list client assistance and extraordinary costs for area enrollment, facilitating, and site building.
FEATURES
Standard Features Abound
Name.com offers a large portion of the standard provisions we’ve generally expected from a customary facilitating plan. For instance, all plans incorporate a free Encryption Everywhere SSL declaration, programmed reinforcements, and a 30-day unconditional promise.
Prominently, notwithstanding, a Cloudflare content conveyance organization (CDN) is excluded, a site building device is a paid independent arrangement, and space names are possibly included free on the off chance that you pick yearly facilitating plans. So keep an eye out for additional costs sneaking in.
WordPress Plans
Name.com is obviously focused on fledglings and offers a scope of WordPress-explicit plans that accompany WordPress pre-introduced, just as help for topics and modules. Be that as it may, there’s a tremendous (and odd) issue with this arrangement. You can’t introduce a SSL endorsement on the WordPress plans.
For reasons unknown, SSL testaments are just accessible on standard shared facilitating plans. This is a significant downside for online business and numerous different sorts of online organizations.
Developer Features
These plans aren’t great for the most progressive site proprietors (you’ll need to consider a top notch have like Vultr or DigitalOcean), however in case you’re simply getting everything rolling with site improvement and need some essential coding highlights, just as fledgling cordial help, this may do the work.
One-Page Website
Actually, I truly like the One-Page Website offering, and I think any individual who runs a side hustle or is a solopreneur or business visionary knows the aggravation. In case you’re occupied with maintaining your business or side hustle, you don’t have the opportunity to assemble yourself an immense site (hell, you don’t have the opportunity to make some espresso most days).
Name.com deals with this by giving a straightforward, one-page portfolio site accessible for only a couple of bucks each year. It likewise takes under five minutes to fabricate.
E-commerce Plans
In case you’re hoping to fabricate an internet business store, Name.com has an arrangement for you. Its Website Builder Business bundles accompany topics that incorporate a huge load of internet business highlights. For instance, the layouts interface with both Stripe and PayPal for installment preparing, delivering choices are taken care of for you, and there are even pre-planned item pages.
Services and Specializations
Name.com offers three degrees of shared facilitating plans, in light of the quantity of sites you need to have and the assets you require. These reach from a starter bundle that is best for a solitary site, with a proper measure of plate space, transmission capacity, email records, and MySQL data sets, right to their top level bundle, intended for limitless destinations, with limitless circle space, transfer speed, email records, and data sets. The top bundle likewise incorporates a SSL authentication, which is accessible as an extra for different designs for an extra charge.
All Name.com facilitating bundles incorporate cPanel, Enterprise Web Stats for checking traffic, limitless FTP accounts, an online record supervisor, spam assurance, PHP 5, computerized daily reinforcements, and more than 400 pre-introduced scripts.
Pricing
While Name.com’s inexpensive upfront is a pro, it’s also a con. The renewal price on domains is significantly higher than competitors, especially for specialty TLDs. Keep in mind that the domain will automatically renew unless you unselect this option during the checkout process. There also aren’t upfront options for bulk purchasing — you have to contact their team to discuss pricing, which is unfortunate given the great bulk search option.
Another con to the pricing structure is that WHOIS security/privacy features aren’t included in the domain price. ICANN requires that personal information including your full name, address, phone number and email be provided. This information is made public via a WHOIS lookup and remains that way unless you have privacy and security add-ons that restrict this information.
Pros of Name.com
Complementary Products

It assists individuals with finding where your property is by telling programs/email/and so forth where to go to get anything it desires (site documents, messages, pictures, information, and so on)
Sophisticated Search
First thing, it’s not difficult to look for an area with Name.com’s interface. And keeping in mind that the query items aren’t the least demanding to interpret (erring on that later), what’s truly captivating with regards to this space enlistment center is its mass hunt.
TLD Selection
Because of ICANN, the web’s administering body, gone are the days where site proprietors are restricted to essential areas like .com, .net, and a couple of other conventional and nation assigned high level spaces (TLDs).
Simple Transfer Process
Regardless of the ICANN interaction having a normalized cycle to move a space, a few enlistment centers can make moving your area an aggravation. While I haven’t moved an area from Name.com at this point, the cycle appears to be genuinely clear. In your profile, you can open your space (insofar as you’ve had it longer than 60 days because of ICANN guidelines).
Cons of Name.com
Domain Search / Purchasing Process
While it’s easy to look for a space name on Name.com, when you really get into the indexed lists… there’s a great deal going on.
On the off chance that you know precisely the thing you’re searching for, you may not think that it is overpowering. Yet, in case you’re new to enlisting areas, the quantity of alternatives and breakdowns of premium spaces, deals, and so on can be a bit confounding.
The buying system is likewise extended. It found a way me a few ways to buy one area name, including a text affirmation (incredible for security, an obstacle for accommodation).
Conclusion
Name.com means to be a simple, minimal expense objective for space enlistment and web facilitating. This can be especially engaging on the off chance that you would prefer not to play with refreshing nameservers and DNS settings. It is additionally an engaging choice for WordPress facilitating. For general web facilitating, they are tantamount to most other minimal expense, shared facilitating plans. Nonetheless, in case you are searching for a starter bundle, with plans to move to a private worker later on, you should discover another host when it comes time for that change. Moreover, in case you’re searching for the additional security of VPS or committed facilitating at present, you should look somewhere else.
