Perfect, if you can handle it.

You might have a lot of hassles, but if you finally know how to do it, you'll just have free domains.
Note that you just have to switch to a dns provider that is less slow.
Everything looks okay so far

I switched from Godaddy. Ionos offers a wide range of features and tools to help manage your website. I appreciated the intuitive control panel and the ability to easily install popular apps and plugins.

Pésimo servicio

Contrate un dominio ml, el primer año fue gratiuto, para la renovación, lo renove con el plan de pago 12 dólares, ahora, resulta que el dominio expiro y pese a que tenia activa la opción de autorenovación, no se renovó y peor... More aún, no permite renovar. Se soporte técnico es nulo. Less
Core Functionality is Gone - It's a Garage Sale Now

Even after 1and1 sold to Ionos the site was still functional.
Yesterday, I went to create a new Wordpress installation and they are trying so desperately to sell you things that they have actually hidden a simple Wordpress i... More nstallation. Now they have people cold calling me that are extremely pushy. When I told them I was frustrated with the service I was told "I wasn't fun and that I have a negative attitude" because I didn't want to try their website builder for free. Do not use this service! It's Yahoo before Google came along. Less
