## How .courses is priced

Every one of the 6 registrars whose .courses pricing we have verified discounts the first year. The median renewal is 20.8× the first-year price, so the advertised figure is the least useful number when comparing .courses sellers. Verified renewals run $31.28 to $103.98 a year.

An introductory price 20.8× below the renewal is a rate you pay once. Compare .courses on the renewal column, or on the ten-year total.

Computed from the 6 verified .courses prices this site holds, not from every registrar selling .courses.
