I am a domainer (I invest in domain names as a business). I also operate several websites. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. Mark Conatser Mount Juliet, Tennessee United States

Please do not raise .com prices. There is no need, and it’s just rent seeking. I am a registrant of a .com domain name, karlnoss.com. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry – it has no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Comments on Prices of registering and renewing domain names
by Catherine Doucet Feb. 10, 2020

Greetings, We are a start-up company selling European designer home furnishings, tableware, accessories and lighting products online to end consumers and interior designers. We need to own a lot of different domain names to protect our brand. We have very limited financial resources. Increasing the price of registering and renewing domain names would be a barrier to entry for small businesses like we are. Thank you for your consideration. *Catherine Doucet* *CEO* *DESIGN QUARTERS* www.designquarters.com 263 7th Street, Hoboken, NJ, USA

I am a registrant of several .com domain names. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. I am retired, and help small businesses get .com domain names and build small websites to help small operators get a website online. Prices have already gone up substantially and will soon out pace the ability of some small businesses to keep their websites. I have tried using some of the other cheaper priced domains such as .us and .monster and find they do not propagate across the www as they should. Perhaps that is because people with huge accounts and .com domains don't like someone using the same name with a .us or .monster domain and coerced their registrant or servers to slow down some ext. Or maybe create a new tld ext that will remain less expensive like .comm or .kom, yet they are not .com the main tld ext everybody types when they have no idea what they are looking for.

I am an owner of a disadvantaged, small, woman owned business. We use several domain names to identify to our clients the product mix. It would be a significant impact if the rates went up. Do not do that please. I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry - it has no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. Laura Jean Wilcox Aurora

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] My Opinion on the Proposed .Com Price Increase
by Laura J. Wilcox Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

As a small disadvantaged, woman owned business, I have several .com names that represent my different practices and it would have a significant impact on whether I would keep the ones that I have if the rates went up. Please do not do this.

I use the Internet but I am not a .com registrant. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains.

Hello - Please reconsider the Registry Amendment!!! I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign want increases in .COM prices. The current rate of $7.85 is already far more than justified. Verisign is merely your manager of the .COM Registry – it has no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest.
