Cloudflare Registrar: what happens when you register a domain?

What this post added

This post introduces Cloudflare Registrar, a new product that addresses the initial step of website creation: domain registration. It highlights the opaque and often expensive practices of traditional registrars and positions Cloudflare Registrar as a transparent, cost-effective alternative, charging only the wholesale price paid to registries and including free WHOIS privacy. This expands Cloudflare's DNS-related offerings beyond just DNS resolution and management to encompass the entire domain lifecycle.
