NameSilo has raised the renewal price for .com domains from $14 to $17.
This follows a general trend among domain registrars, many of which have increased their prices this year between August and October. For instance, Dynadot raised its prices in August, citing an increase from the central registry, which manages .com.
On September 2, 2024, Namecheap also announced price hikes for various domain extensions, including .COM, .XYZ, .PICS, .RENT, and .COLLEGE, attributing the increases to rising costs from domain registries (the companies that manage these domain extensions).
However, there are still opportunities for savings if you purchase .com domains in bulk. If you register more than 40 domains, NameSilo offers a discounted rate of $11.05 per domain instead of the standard $17. Dynadot and Namecheap offer similar discounts for bulk purchases.
If you are looking for a cheaper option for a single domain, you might consider Domain registrars like Spaceship, Porkburn, Namecheap, and Cosmotown, which cost less than $6 for new customers.
