Award-winning DNS management without annoying upsells
At Trustname, we believe that privacy is a fundamental right. That's why we offer premium DNS, Whois privacy, and essential email features at no additional cost. We also offer SSL certificates at a fair price. So that your customer data is protected.
In sharp contrast, GoDaddy charges $12 for domain protection, $24 for basic email, $70 for the essential SSL certificate, plus an additional $10 for renewals above market rates, plus ICANN fees.
Choosing all these extras with GoDaddy could mean paying an additional $150 for a website in just one year.

In contrast, Trustname includes a basic SSL certificate (worth $17.99) free for the first year, while GoDaddy's SSL option is priced at $69.99 per year.

Our Customers Say
Frequently Asked Questions
Does TrustName support all the same features as GoDaddy?
Yes. Trustname supports all the key features you'd expect from a leading registrar — including DNS management, SSL certificates, email forwarding, and Whois privacy. The difference is that with Trustname, these features come without upsells or hidden renewal fees.
Will the cost of my domain change now that I have joined Trustname?
No surprises here — our pricing is transparent and stable. A standard .com domain renews at $14.99 per year, including ICANN fees and free privacy protection. High-volume or bulk users enjoy at-cost pricing as low as $11.97 per year, with no hidden markups or upsells. In comparison, GoDaddy charges $22.18 annually for the same .com renewal — often with added costs for privacy, email, and SSL. With Trustname, what you see is truly what you pay.
Does Trustname support all the languages and currencies that GoDaddy does?
Yes. Trustname supports multiple languages and currencies, making it simple for customers worldwide to manage their domains with full transparency. You can also pay with cryptocurrency for added privacy.
Do I need other Trustname services if I use Trustname Domains?
Not at all. Your domain works seamlessly on its own, but you can easily expand it with Managed WordPress Hosting, Business Email, and SSL Certificates for an all-in-one, privacy-focused solution. Every domain also comes with over $100 in included services — a free SSL certificate, business email, Ultimate Uptime Anycast DNS, and built-in threat protection.
How long does a domain transfer to Trustname take?
Most domain transfers complete within 24–48 hours, depending on your current registrar. In some cases, ICANN rules allow up to 5 business days. You can track progress directly in your Trustname dashboard.
I have several domains, have they all been transferred to Trustname?
If you used the bulk transfer feature, all your domains will move together, but each must still be approved individually by your current registrar. This approval normally happens automatically within 5 business days, though you can expedite the process by contacting your current (sponsoring) registrar and asking them to approve the transfer sooner.
Will my website or email stop working during the transfer?
No — your website and email remain fully functional during the transfer process, as DNS records and hosting settings stay active with your current provider until the transfer completes.
Do I lose any remaining time from my current registration?
Not at all. When you transfer a domain to Trustname, the remaining time is carried over and one extra year is added automatically to your expiration date.
Can I transfer domains that have expired or are about to expire?
Yes, you can usually transfer a recently expired domain during its renewal grace period. However, it's best to start the transfer at least 10 days before expiration to avoid downtime or extra fees from your current registrar.
What else can I do to make my site more secure?
We recommend enabling DNSSEC, securing your website with an SSL certificate, and keeping your ownership details private using our two-tier Whois protection. Trustname also includes free DDoS mitigation and Premium DNS at no extra cost to keep your site consistently fast, stable, and secure.
