Generic TLD for blogs and publications, run by Automattic (WordPress.com).
Spaceship has the lowest verified renewal price for .blog at $20.18. IONOS prices .blog flat: the first year costs the same as every renewal, so there is no promotional rate that jumps later.
How .blog is priced
1 of the 8 registrars whose .blog pricing we have verified prices it flat, first year the same as every renewal, while the other 7 discount year one (median renewal 6.3× the promotional price). Verified renewals run $20.18 to $87.98 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 .blog prices this site holds, not from every registrar selling .blog. How prices are verified.
