This will very likely make no difference at all, but what is going on here? Why such a huge price increase? How is this justified? Surely those who matter are the individuals buying the domains in the first place. Running a website often has lots of different costs involved - from hosting fees to the time to setup and then manage and maintain a website. The last thing we need is a huge price increase. I am a PhD Student Researcher. I don't have the money to pay huge fees for a domain name. Many people will often choose a .com domain to host their website because it's the most well known. Far from it's original purpose: .com domains are used by everyone from companies to individuals. What is going on today? First .org, and now .com? Has the world gone mad? --Starbeamrainbowlabs Owner of starbeamrainbowlabs.com
