Increasing prices is acceptable, but it becomes unacceptable when the fee is not controlled. For a company with 10 domains, it is affordable, for a company with 100 domains, it is a considerable cost difference. Most SMEs hold around 50 to 100 domains and it could result easily in shedding of a lot of domains, un renewed business for you and the smaller business which make up the majority. We already get several clients every year who drop their personal domain and hosting as cost saving measures. This can only increase if we have to increase our prices.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal> We hope that this will make a difference in you considering the bigger picture of cancelations to come VS revenue earned from the increase.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>With thanks<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 style='border-collapse:collapse'><tr style='height:19.85pt'><td width=705 valign=top style='width:528.4pt;padding:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt;height:19.85pt'><p class=MsoNormal><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial Rounded MT Bold","sans-serif";mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>With Best Regards<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial Rounded MT Bold","sans-serif";mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>Ali Parandeh, Bsc, MIAP, PhD<br>Founder of Urbytus™ & The Presidents Club™<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></td></tr></table><p class=MsoNormal style='line-height:115%'><span style='mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'><img width=10 height=10 id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D5E0C4.3E4B9410" alt="Description: cid:image002.gif@01CBB19E.CAC26E00"></span><b><span lang=ES style='font-size:20.0pt;line-height:115%;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:ES'><a href="http://www.urbytus.com/"><span style='color:#0F243E'>urby</span><span style='color:#E36C0A'>tus</span></a></span></b><b><span lang=ES style='font-size:14.0pt;line-height:115%;color:#1F497D;mso-fareast-language:ES'> </span></b><b><span lang=ES style='color:#4A442A;mso-fareast-language:ES'>· Avenida Alcalde Clemente Díaz Ruíz 14 · 29640 Fuengirola, Málaga · SPAIN · </span></b><b><span lang=ES style='font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;color:#4A442A;mso-fareast-language:ES'>+34 952.591.071</span></b><b><span lang=ES style='color:#4A442A;mso-fareast-language:ES'><o:p></o:p></span></b></p><table class=MsoNormalTable border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 width=705 style='width:528.7pt;border:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt'><tr style='height:27.9pt'><td width=705 style='width:528.7pt;border:none;background:#E9E9E9;padding:0cm 0cm 0cm 0cm;height:27.9pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;line-height:115%'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:7.5pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";mso-fareast-language:EN-GB'>CONFIDENTIALITY.
