Oct 13th 2007: ENOM price change (September 20, 2007)
(4 votes, average: 3.5 out of 5)
Loading ...In April 2007, the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) approved the applications of certain domain registries to increase their prices. Domain registries are the private companies which manage the registration, technical operations and control the allocation policies of the TLD’s for which it is responsible.
Domain registries VeriSign, Afilias, Neulevel and Public Interest Registry applied for and received price increases and have announced they will be raising their wholesale prices to all ICANN-accredited registrars.
ENOM, who originally stated that they would not raise prices, have done just that. Effective October 14th 2007, ENOM will raise their price an average of $0.58 per year. In light of that, our pricing will change accordingly. While we would love to challenge ENOM’s ability to raise prices, they do reserve the right (in the small print) to raise them should ICANN approve. Prices will be raised by $0.58 for all TLD’s on October 13th.

A quick note on the new base pricing for .com, .net and all price-matched TLD’s: These registrations will be up 58 cents from $6.95, that price is locked.
We’ve had a few questions about this, with many companies apparently going past the 9 and ten dollar mark because of the price increase enforced by ENOM. I can’t speak for other companies, only our own. We will continue to offer the registrations at the lowest price currently available on any ENOM tier, as ETP’s.
