Our Recommendation
Best Combo: Cloudflare Registrar + Cloudflare Pages
Register your domain at Cloudflare ($10.44/year), then deploy your site to Cloudflare Pages (free). You get:
- ✓ Cheapest .com registration
- ✓ Free unlimited hosting
- ✓ Global CDN included
- ✓ DDoS protection
- ✓ Automatic HTTPS
Bottom Line
Don't pay extra for "free hosting bundles"—they're usually bait for expensive renewals. Instead, use free tiers from Cloudflare, Netlify, or Vercel with a cheap registrar.
