[Comments-com-amendment-3-03jan20] Comments on .COM Price Increases

[Godwin Jibueze]

Dear ICANN,

 

I am writing regarding ICANN's agreement with Verisign that will allow
increase in wholesale price to registrars for .COM domains every year for 8
out of the next 10 years.

This will mean that .COM wholesale domain prices can grow by more than 70%
over and above current prices over the next decade, besides other price
increases, which could drive prices up further, ultimately making .COM
domains less accessible and more expensive for everybody.

I recommend that domain prices not be further increased to allow internet
penetration to SMEs and individuals looking to establish online presence.

I trust this recommendation not to further increase prices will be prudently
considered before any decisions are made.

 

Best regards,

 

Godwin Jibueze
