[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Proposed Amendment 3 to the .COM Registry Agreement
by Ирина Feb. 8, 2020

Feb. 8, 2020

Hello, I am a registrant of a .com domain name. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. My colleagues and I urge you to listen to your users and reconsider the rate increase. We hope you will take this and other complaints into account.

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. Have mercy on us ICANN. How can I handreg more .com domain name if Verisign increase the price of .com domain. I have a limited budget and I’m just starting in domain name investing. Thanks for your consideration. Hope you’ll change your mind.

I strongly oppose the decision of price increase of .COM domain registration. It'll adversely affect all small businesses and individuals holding .COM domains.

I am a .com registrant and am associated with the secondary market. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. No one other than Verisign wants 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 - and already makes profits at current price levels in excess of the operating needs to maintain a registry. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest. The public has a vested interest in reasonably priced domain registrations to foster innovation on the internet and allow the individuals to maintain a presence on the web. Patricia Hendarno Germany

To Whom It May Concern: I am a registrant of over 1000+ .com domain names. I am against the proposed price increase to .COM domains. This would have a negative effect on my business and STRONGLY oppose this move. No one other than Verisign wants increases in .COM prices. Other GTLDS have been able to lower costs. Verisign has no business dictating the price. ICANN is supposed to govern the domain name system in the public interest.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Domain Amendment
by Bobbie Wiles Feb. 8, 2020

Feb. 8, 2020

To Whom It May Concern, I own several domains. Many of my domains are used for free sites whereas I do not profit at all. Please reconsider the exorbitant price increases. If you feel you must increase, only increase on future domains OR even better, future users so that current buyers can remain at a forever rate. However, increasing domain prices at the current rate will make it terribly expensive for future generations. It is best to keep domain pricing low. Nearly every person on the planet will want at least one domain so surely you can easily keep the buying rate even lower than what it is today, which makes the inflation an act of greed. Thank you.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] .com increased costs
by Chris Riley Feb. 8, 2020

Feb. 8, 2020

As someone who has been involved since 1993 with law.com (and others) it is clear that there is a fixed cost to running the .com TLD. However, given the large number of names, that fixed cost is spread over a large number of domain names. Allowing for an increased price and annual increases will only serve one entity - the registrar. If that is not clear, put out the .com TLD for competitive bidding and see how many entities will bid at a lower price. Thanks

by Matt Griffith Feb. 8, 2020

I registered my first domain in 1994 when they were free from InterNIC. I didn't abuse this... I simply registered my company name of Graphix.com which has since changed to Merlix. My livelihood for the past 25 years has been around the internet. Over the years, I have registered numerous domains for development as well as investment. I also manage domain names for numerous clients, many of which are non-profits and churches. 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. ICANN has a responsibility to the public... not Verisign. There are many registries that would be more than willing to take over the .COM registry and probably even do it for less than Verisign is currently.
