International Domain Price

International Domain name Registration agency ICANN has on October 15 in the global increase in international domain name wholesale prices, the wholesale price of COM domain name rose from 6 U.S. dollars to 6.42 U.S. dollars, net domain name wholesale prices from 3.5 U.S. dollars to 3.85 U.S. dollars. This is the first increase in the price of a registry since 1999 when ICANN established a price system for the two top-level domain domains.

Today, login to each domain name registration site, found that both foreign and domestic, the domain name registration price has increased. GoDaddy as early as one weeks ago has adjusted the price, the previous registration price for the annual $8.95 U.S. dollars, the current GoDaddy registered price for the com/net for $9.99,org $6.99. Another domain registrar namecheap, the previous price of 8.88 U.S. dollars, now namecheap registered com/net/org domain name prices are $9.29/years.

In the domestic, million network com/net/org domain name registration price from the original 130 yuan/year to increase to 139 yuan/year. The new network and China channel is 130 yuan/year. The rest of the country's domain name registrars are also most fully follow the international domain name of the price increase action. But the overall registration price is still higher than the foreign registration price.

To say a digression, my earliest domain name was 2000 in the million net registered, at that time, the registered price of 60 yuan/year, and then rose to 70 yuan/year, until its final rise to 130 yuan/year, I will be the domain name registration migrated to GoDaddy, then from the million network to move out of the domain name that is really called trouble, I want my ID card again to fax, the migration process used for several weeks, midway also failed several times, the most ridiculous is that I moved out of the domain name after two years, million network of customer service also called to ask me if I want to renew the domain name.

In addition to cnnic the opportunity to hype CN domain name, I still do not recommend the Register CN domain name, at least for individuals or small enterprises, running the CN domain name will be more than the operation of COM domain names have greater risk.
