Domains

Google Domains, a domain name registrar service launched by Google in 2014, is being sold to Squarespace, a website builder platform, in a deal that will close in Q3 2023. Squarespace will take over the assets and customers of Google Domains, and will also become the exclusive domains provider for Google Workspace customers. Google cited its efforts to sharpen its focus as the reason for selling the business. The announcement was unexpected and has disappointed some Google Domains customers who are worried about the potential gap in both the quality of the experience and the price.
