In the age of social media and Instagram, people are becoming more and more influenced by the lifestyles they see on social media. This gives a rise to aspirations to attain wealth and live a very comfortable if not a luxurious life. Not everyone is blessed with a good amount of wealth, born in an affluent family or have a high income. It is good to work hard towards your goals and achieve success over time but even though most people want to become wealthy, they just don't get it. We all have seen a prince marrying an ordinary woman in fairy tales. In Korean drama, it is very common to see an extremely rich man marrying an ordinary woman or vice versa. Marrying a rich man/woman can be a shortcut for someone to escape poverty and attain the desired level of wealth and financial freedom. During my consultations, several people come up to me with these questions and through this article I want to guide you to find the best approach for your life based on your planetary placemen...
Google domains is a domain name registrar. It is owned and operated by Google and Google rolled this product in 2014.
Google domains is still in its beta phase but it is getting very popular because of its simple design.
The main target of Google was to attract the small business owners who can easily buy a domain name and setup their own business website using Google sites or have a custom email address - like name@yourbusinessname.com instead of name_yourbusinessname@gmail.com.
If you are a Google Apps (Gsuite, now) subscriber then you can setup your own custom email address and website with just one click. This ease of use is what a small business owner, who is not a tech savvy and do not wish to pay for getting these things, needs.
This is what you see when you go to the interface (domains.google.com/registrar).
You see four options in front of each domain name.
1) Website: To setup a website for your domain. This option will show you the websites already connected with your domain and all provides you options to setup a new website and make the domain point to that website with just a click. You can setup a website with Wordpress, Blogger, Wix, Squarespace, Shopify and Weebly, depending on your requirement.
2) Email: If you are a Gsuite user and even if you have purchased the domain from another google account, just add that domain in Gsuite as an alias and Google domains will automatically detect that and will setup the email for you. You can also create a custom email address and forward it to your existing email address.
Also, Google offers you email forwarding for free. So, now matter how many domains you own, you can forward all your emails coming through those domains at any address without any extra cost whereas you have to pay a minimal fee if you are using GoDaddy.
3) DNS: This is to access the domain name servers and you can make changes to the dns records. But you do not even need to access it if you just want to setup your website with Google sites and custom email with Gsuite. Google will take care of it automatically.
4) Settings: You can allow other users to access your domain name through their Google accounts, turn on or of Privacy Protection and control if people can see the information of the domain owner and Domain Lock to prevent from the domain transfer. The good thing is that you do not need to pay extra to hide your contact information if you buy domain from Google Domains.
5) Expires: You have no option to register your domain for more than one year. Every year the renewal happens and the money is drawn from your account. This symbol appears when you have opted for automatic renewal, otherwise it shows the next date of renewal.
Setting Up HTTPS To HTTPS Redirect
This feature was not present in the Google DNS and you were only able to redirect from http to any web address.
So, if you want www.example1.com to the some address https://www.example2.com then only http://www.example1.com will reach to this address and https://www.example1.com will not work.
But in July 2018, Google rolled out this great feature. Now, all you have to do is just select the "Enable SSL" option.
Google will then automatically generate an SSL certificate and both http://www.example1.com and https://www.example1.com will point to https://www.example2.com.
So, if you wish to buy a domain name for your business or personal website then you should go for Google Domains.
