Google has come up with a number of innovative applications since its inception in 2004. Some of the applications like Google Mail, Google Calendar, Google Keep, Google Search, Google Map, etc. are fairly popular.
It has recently entered into another arena: Domain Registration. Google has announced launching of Google Domain that offers Domain registration with other associated services like website building, email, etc. Google Domain offers you the avenue to try your hand on hosting your domain through a few simple steps. The relevant management tools are easy to use. The flip side of this welcome initiative is the unavailability of the service presently to all and sundry. It is instead offered only on invitation. May be at a later stage, the service will be available to all those who intend to opt for it.

The detailed information is still not available with us. Google is not forthcoming with all the technicalities. The sketchy news that we have gathered so far point to something dramatic likely to emerge soon. The salient points, however, are summed up as under -
The launching of Google Domain is likely to result in quite some hectic promotional activities. Time will only judge whether the new entry from Google will ultimately redefine the present equations in the sphere of domain registration. Let’s wait and watch.
- Domain registration is likely to cost USD 12.00. This is a bit higher than what we get from other similar portals like GoDaddy.
- No additional charges are to be levied.
- Google Domain will provide up to 100 subdomains for customisation of websites.
- It also offers a variety of domain management tools.
- It further uses the same DNS servers that are used by other sites of Goofle. This will ensure greater reliability to the Domain.
