Until I saw your video, I thought Pork Bun had the least expensive prices on domains. Thanks for the money-saving tip!

Registered with cloudflare then found I cant change nameservers unless I upgrade to the $20 a month business plan.

[@brynheveldt8351]

Cloudflare free dns features are great. You may not need to change nameservers. Cloudflare handles all the dns config and SSL for free. I think the catch is they want you to use their DNS features. Buying a domain from them forces you to do that. This would only be an issue with something like Squarespace or Shopify perhaps.

[@3a1Va1]

The only question left is whether they have a feature to protect your information as Godaddy does. Essentially blocking the owners private information...

thanks it was informative

Bro you should develop an app specifically for your content and monetize it since clearly youtube is sensoring your beneficial content. Thank you for being consistent !

[@jerbear7952]

You clearly don't understand how bad of an idea this is.

[@DesignerBass]

What about hosting. Are you basically stuck with clouflare?

[@TheFigCo]

You can use any hosting service you'd like

[@jcb204]

@@TheFigCo No, you cannot. Not without upgrading to a business account which cost $200 a month. I bought my domain on Cloudflare mainly based on your recommendation. Now I'm stuck not being able to use it since they won't let me use my Zyro nameservers. You have lead me astray. You should stop recommending Cloudflare without pointing out that detail first.

How to connect to hosting? How to change nameservers?

[@digdilem]

You cannot change nameservers for a domain registered with Cloudflare. It's about the only limitation. To do this, you would need to transfer the domain from cloudflare to another registrar.

[@zeeshaandiv]

@@digdilem This is so annoying

[@digdilem]

@Zeeshaan Div I agree, but it's the cost of not paying any domain commission fees, I guess. Plenty of other registrars out there who are more flexible, but more expensive.

[@Agent360CRM]

Thanks! So helpful!

[@AhmadWali]

Video is misleading because once you purchase cloudflare domain, you cannot add web hosting. There is no way to change Name Servers. Cannot transfer out the domain as it requires 60 days to cool off! Basically Cloudflare domains is a trap.

[@iamjackcrow]

That’s policy across the board at any domain registrar.

How do I use my Cloudfare Domain name with Hostgator? I can not change the Cloudfare name servers.

[@muratonder65]

I would leave HostGator and use Digital Ocean. You will notice a huge difference. I don't know why I stayed with Hostgator for so long. The word droplet scared me up. I was like what the hell is a droplet...sounds too complicated....turns out it just means a server and they make everything super easy. The speed of my sites is fantastic. I also started using Plesk instead of cPanel...Don't know why I was stuck on cPanel for so long. I said goodbye to that as well. Actually, my domains are still registered on Hostgator, but I use D.O. to host my sites since Hostgator allows NS Changes and I didn't feel like going through the hassle.

@@digdilem sorry im new to this and a little confused, whats the point buying our domain from them if we stuck and cannot connect it to a hosting page? ive just bought my domain name from them and now need to create a website but havent chosen yet who with so will i not be able to link the two of them and what do you mean by "tranfer the domain to an other registra"? does it actually mean ive just bought it from them for nothing? or tranfer mean i will still be with them and pay their fees?

[@digdilem]

@@iconicella235 If your hosting is with cloudflare as well, there's no need to move the domain. If your hosting is somewhere else, then yes - you'll need to transfer your domain elsewhere. That's not terribly difficult, and you won't lose the time you've registered your domain for. Sometimes you need to pay for an extra year to the new registrar, but they don't charge for transferring.

[@jesus.moreno]

If I buy a domain in cloudflare .. how I conect the domain to my hosting cpanel ??? ... on namecheap I only change the nameserver to connect to the hosting ... How to do the same in cloudflare ??

[@fullstuckwebdeveloper8063]

@@digdilem It is easy create an A field in Cloudflare domain panel and set the your host 'sIP my mean your server that hosted your website or app files or cpanel

[@digdilem]

@@fullstuckwebdeveloper8063 Yes - you have full control over your dns with cloudflare, but you cannot change the nameservers like you can with a normal registrar. That's not a complaint, but it's important people understand that before they use CF as some webhosts do require NS's to be set to theirs so they can automatically change DNS records.

Do Cloudflare provide Domain Privacy?

Thank you.
