FAQs about domain name costs

Why are some domain names cheaper than others?

Domain name prices vary because of supply and demand. Domain name registries sometimes charge more for desirable or popular top-level domains (TLDs) and second-level domains (2LDs). In addition, registrars may mark up prices on some domains that are known to be popular.

Finally, some parties on the web practice domain squatting: They acquire domain names known to be wanted by someone else and artificially drive up the price.

In contrast, obscure 2LDs and common TLDs like .com can be fairly cheap, with some costing as little as $0.99.

How are domain names priced?

Domain names are issued and managed by a combination of the nonprofit Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) and domain registries. ICANN sets the price for some types of domains, and registries sell them at that price. Other types of domains, such as some TLDs, can be sold at whatever price the registry prefers.

Registries are wholesalers that in turn sell to registrars. Registrars are the retailers that sell directly to website owners. Registrars often mark up domain names on top of the price they paid to the registries to make a profit. Cloudflare Registrar does not do this, instead selling domain names at cost.
