## How .fans is priced

6 of the 8 registrars whose .fans pricing we have verified price it flat, first year the same as every renewal, while the other 2 discount year one (median renewal 2.5× the promotional price). Verified renewals run $8.46 to $100.00 a year.

A flat seller and a discounted one can look identical in year one and differ sharply by year three, so compare the renewal or the multi-year total.

Computed from the 8 verified .fans prices this site holds, not from every registrar selling .fans.
