[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Provision for .COM Registry Fee Price Increases
To Whom it may concern, As a long time citizen of the internet, I do not understand the need to remove price caps from registry management services managed by VERISIGN. Verisign currently has a 47.76% net profit margin and 2017 revenue of over 1 Billion. Clearly the cost of maintaining the .COM registry is not impacting VERISIGN's ability to turn a profit or grow their business. Providing provisions for price increases increases the cost of doing business for all registries and domain name registrants, and is simply free $$ for VERISIGN a company, that does not need any more revenue. Given that VERISIGN paid $20 million for this privilege of increasing register fees, I'd suggest you ask for far more $$. They can afford it. You can do better than this. -Ben Congleton CEO, Olark Have you seen the new Olark?
