What are some of the best options for college students to obtain domain names and hosting services?

I am looking at AWS and Heroku to deploy and host a node app, and 1 and 1 as well as google for registering my domain name. Looking for some other options people have used in the past.

My go-to domain name registrar is namecheap.com, they're usually the same price, or cheaper every time I've compared prices.

And I typically use Heroku or Digital Ocean for any and all of my hosting.

for domain names, google is pretty handy and as for hosting, I agree with Kevin Korte Keroku and D.O are pretty good and sustainable
