I use namecheap and I just got an email saying that the price is going up from 8.88 to 9.29 . Was just wondering what other domain name holders there are here and if your price has gone up also. It says that ICANN has raised the prices. Anyways I know ICANN controls all the domains but who controls ICANN some kind of government? Who runs it?
Alex
Yeah, luckily prior to that email I'd already renewed all my domains for 2-4 years, not that it's that much of a price difference anyway.

Info on ICANN: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICANN

jeez, thats a pretty big increase. try using idotz.net - thats what i use for most of my domains.
Alex
$0.41 (20p) is big? Even if you're registering a domain for five years there's only $2.05 in it. I just find it fairly hard to care that much about the base price of registering domains unless you have loads of them.

I really wouldn't trust idotz.net, mostly because of their shit poor site. I'll stick with namecheap I think.

nope... my domain registrar is and will always remain at: $9.95

Hardly anything to scoff at, still cheaper than most places.

That is the only way I could see it being a big deal to anyone. Still probably wouldn't be much.
