Guarding Against Predatory Pricing

We identify the subtle ways registrars inflate costs over the lifetime of your domain.

The Intro Trap

Many registrars advertise $0.99 registration fees to secure your business, only to charge $18.99 or more on the first renewal. Always check the 5-year projected cost before committing.

ICANN Fee Transparency

The standard $0.18 ICANN fee is often hidden until the final checkout screen. Transparent registrars include this fee in their listed price. We flag providers who use "Checkout Bloat" tactics.

Privacy Upsells

WHOIS privacy should be free. Some registrars still charge $10-$15 annually for privacy protection. Our tracker prioritizes registrars that include this as a standard, no-cost feature.
