Important Notice: Upcoming Price Increase for .com Domains (effective 1st Sept 2024)

 

We want to inform you of an upcoming change to the pricing of .com domain registrations and renewals. Due to a ~20% increase in the cost from the domain registry, we will be adjusting our prices accordingly.

What’s Changing?

Starting from 1st September, the price of .com domains will increase from the current rate of $27.50 to $33.00. This adjustment reflects the ~20% increase imposed by the registry / Wholesaler.

Why the Increase?

The registry that manages .com domains has raised its wholesale prices, impacting all domain providers globally. As a result, we are adjusting our pricing to align with these changes while continuing to provide you with the best service possible.

What Should You Do?

If your domain renewal is approaching, you may consider renewing your domain now at the current price of $27.50 before the new pricing takes effect on 1st September. Additionally, you can renew your domain for up to 10 years at the current price. This is a great opportunity to lock in the lower rate for an extended period. If you’re interested, please contact us, and we’ll be happy to make the necessary arrangements for you.

Other Domain Extensions

We’d like to reassure you that this price increase only affects .com domains. Other domain extensions, such as .net, .org, and country-specific domains, are not impacted by this change. Their pricing will remain the same.

We’re Here to Help

If you have any questions or need assistance with your domain renewal, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team. 

Thank you for your continued trust in our services.

Best regards,
