Just a heads up, July 1 2010 Verisign (the online domain registry company) plans to increase their fees on .com's by 7% and .net domains by 10%. Naturally, they will pass these increases onto domain name registrars like GoDaddy, Namecheap etc who, not surprisingly, will pass these charges onto us consumers.
Many registrars are allowing customers to to add a year onto their exisiting domains before the price increases go into effect so if you own a lot of domains, now might be the time to extend them and save some cash.
Consider that each time Verisign increases their fees, it puts something like $25 Million into their pockets, it might be a good time to invest in Verisign shares (that's not investment advice...I'm just sayin'...)
