Overall Satisfaction with Google Domains
Currently we're using Google Domains for our non-profit's founder's book website. We set up a simple book website using one of Shopify's great templates and wanted folks to visit a custom website rather than something that showed Shopify.com in the URL address. Google Domains has given us a very clean new website URL to direct our audience to.
- The setup for a new domain is super quick and easy.
- The interface for setting up our new domain was very easy to navigate and provided some powerful tools if we really wanted to improve our analytics and integrations with other features they offer.
- Their pricing was very competitive to other services we looked at and it allowed us to purchase it connected to our Google Admin, so all of our data is in one place.
- If they offer a nice website builder like GoDaddy does, I could see that being an improvement.
- I think they could do even more to add features that someone looking for a domain would also need for next steps.
- They could integrate with even more third-party providers for webhosting.
- It allowed us to have a clean URL that our audience could easily remember and navigate to.
- Because our URL was easy to remember, this caused an increase in website visits and products purchased.
- We were also able to take advantage of design space because our URL was able to be much shorter. We also could purchase different .org and .co so if people happened to put in the wrong ending to their URL, they would be redirected.
- GoDaddy
I didn't do a ton of research into the differences between the two, but Google Domains was a lot more simple and straightforward to set up. They also have a cheaper price and provided some services to walk you through setting it up much more quickly and logically. GoDaddy's service and platform starts to feel out dated.
