Hey Nerou, For domain registration, you can use Google Domains <https://domains.google.com/about/>, which is relatively new and has the benefit of integrating tightly with all the rest of Google (including making use of our own network and nameservers), and you can configure your domain to point to your Compute Engine instance using Cloud DNS <https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/tutorials/lamp/setting-up-dns>.
Let me know if you've got any more questions, as so far this is an excellent thread for future search-results.
