Washington Post lets domain registration lapse

Revenue and Profit: Why would the domain name registrars lease a name for 5, 10, 15+ years at $19, when next year, they can raise the rate to $20+? This lets the registrars adjust their income and profit to whatever level is desired - within reason. They couldn't raise the rate to $500 per year, since most people would find that a little excessive and income would decline.; Posted by: Letophoro Posted on: 02/06/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
