Feb. 10, 2020

Since my involvement developing and hosting websites since the 1990’s, the internet has championed itself as the vehicle of information and business for companies of all sizes. Startups to large companies have used its benefits. Let’s not increase the entry level costs for small businesses that are the backbone of our economy. Jeff Malloy

To ICANN, I understand your need to continue to make profits. Thats why we are all in business. But please limit your increases and spread them over longer period, such as a raise every 5 years at 10%. Million of small businesses that are the backbone of the nation rely on keeping our expenses to a minimum. We as a company barely make enough to still in person. We've had to lay off employees in the last 2 years. Please help us all stay in business for the good of the nation.

[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Veto amendment 3 to .COM
by BKMP Creations Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

I firmly believe that this proposed amendment is not good. It appears to be forming another monopoly, with greedy interests to increase revenue from the millions of .com domain owners. Increasing the cost of having a .com website would hurt small businesses and startups to the point where they couldn’t justify starting out with a .com domain for their business. PLEASE veto this amendment! Sincerely, Benjamin Buitenkamp BKMP Creations www.bkmpcreations.com

I really would appreciate this not happening. As a small business owner, this added expense is both unnecessary and unreasonable. Making a few extra dollars in light of others is never a good idea.

by James Steel Feb. 10, 2020

Feb. 10, 2020

As a long term owner of multiple domains, this is to register our disappointment in recent the proposed Amendment 3 agreement. We understand that price increases over time are inevitable over time. What concerns us is the manner in which this arrangement has been negotiated, the lack of accountability involved in the process. Because we end users have no alternative choices it is especially incumbent upon you to be transparent and forthright in your dealings and pricing. James Steel Visit Jim’s site at: StandingTrue.com

I vividly stand against the increase, I don’t support the increase. This increase will discourage people from having a .com site which is the most used website. Rather the price should be reduced more in other to increase use of the internet. The new increase will be such a huge financial burden on me, I will not be able to afford it and I believe many people too will not be able to afford it. Thanks for the understanding

To whom it may concern: I always disagree with deals made in secret and behind closed doors, but this is one that affects me personally. The new deal with Verisign can affect small businesses and working people more than anyone. Purchasing .com domain names is currently affordable for people and helps so much for having a space online to advertise, but increasing that cost could mean that many people never even bother with an online space or have it bought out from under them by someone with more money. Please consider how this affects the smaller entrepreneurs and creators.

Dear reader, Today I read in an email from Namecheap that the price of .com domains might drastically increase over the coming years. I think it will be in the best interest of everyone that the price of TLDs should decrease, because more people can have independent websites. Could you reconsider your abilities to increase prices for the good of the individual, something your country was built on. Looking forward to hearing from you, Duncan
