I’m looking to register a new domain but hate how pricing is $0.01 first year, $1M renewal. It doesn’t seem like a deal if it’s going to cost so much to renew.
Are there any transparent registrars or any tools that will give you a cost over 3 years or something?
I’ll be honest, I did Google it but you’ll never guess what the top hit was. I didn’t click. I’m putting this here in a small attempt to transfer some knowledge to the fediverse.
Porkbun is very straightforward with renewal prices, great registrar all around.
Personally I’ve had good experience with Namecheap, I would’ve said Google Domains but…yeah…
Too soon sir, too soon.
You mentioned this elsewhere, but for those who don’t know xyz 1.111B class are incredibly cheap numerical xyz domains.
Google domains served me well before Google decided to kill it… oh well…
That’s awesome! I just snatched my phone numbers (phone numbers are 8 digits in my country) as domains.
Me, just now, learning about that for the first time:
Very cheap domains that actually renew at that price? That’s interesting, though I guess you could almost just as well memorize your IPv4 address for free instead. Except you get to pick this number and use subdomains. Now l just have to think of a memorable 6 to 9 digit number…
I guess still having my ICQ number memorized might finally be useful for something! Who’d have thought?
