that's why you always look at renewal prices and never first year prices. tld-list.com has a good comparison.

Thats why I bought a dirt cheap domain that is entirely numbers, and it renews for 10 dollars every 10 years.

I just need to remember the digits.

.xyz

Make sure you're buying .com or another common standard TLD and not some weird TLD with super high prices.

And check the renewal price, if your registrar doesn't make it very clear then go somewhere else.

I have a .us domain, I don't even remember what I pay, I only do it every 6 years, it's so cheap...

you must have a high traffic TLD like a .ai or .sucks or something.
