.com prices will increase on November 1st

angstrom

Just in case you haven't yet heard:

Starting November 1, 2026, Verisign will increase wholesale prices for .COM domains by $0.71.

If you want to avoid this price increase, you should renew your .com domains before November 1st

(My info is from Cosmotown)

Will be for each of the next 4 years (7% each), they had a break last year.

Its nice, but show price before/after.

Well to be fair, inflation is real, prices need to go up, the real problem is wages are apparently ok to not go up with inflation haha.

Fair enough:

• Verisign's current wholesale price is $10.26 per year, which will increase to $10.97 per year on November 1st (i.e., +$0.71 per year)

Might be a UK thing. Here workers are getting paid literally twice as much as in 2022, of course everything else cost about twice as much so it seems about right. Oddly gas, LP, and electric has gone up less than most anything else. /derail

P.S.: Thread moved from Domain Sales to General.

In Spain we are living crisis which is permanent from 2007 inflation going Up but salaries are alwsys going back respect the inflation. @AnthonySmith have said inflation going Up but salaries are going Up at slow levels . Probably real inflation is 7-9% salaries if going Up may be 2-3% . So UK and Spanish reality is pretty similar respect that

Yeah.. since about 2008 haha, we never recovered.

Meanwhile 90% of jobs are advertised at 25-30k and rent is 1200... Maths ain't matching and they wonder why the native population birth rate is through the floor.

Same here may be could be interesting to share the normal costs in diferent countries from different meme rs about normal things to see It in different places. Probably more or less the same story .
