To whom it may concern: I find it ridiculous that over the next decade you feel that up to a 70% increase in the pricing of .com domains is appropriate. As a small business owner who manages a large number of domains for various clients, this will directly impact my business and my ability to provide quality services at affordable prices. I can wholeheartedly understand the need to increase prices with rising costs, as inflation does impact an organizations bottom line, such a large increase over the next decade is not warranted. I would support a market indexed inflation increase % every few years to keep up with the rise in costs, but dramatic increases in prices only harm our overall industry, and the economy.
