.org domain — straight answers
How much does a .org domain cost?
The lowest first-year price is $10.18 at Cloudflare, then $10.18 to renew/yr. Over 3 years the cheapest total cost of ownership is $30.54. The median renewal across the 7 registrars we compare is $11.84/yr, so picking the cheapest scores 55/100 on value.
Where is the cheapest place to renew a .org domain?
Cloudflare has the lowest ongoing renewal at $10.18/yr. Renewal — not the first-year promo — is what you pay every year, so it's the number that matters most for a domain you keep. Across all 7 registrars the annual renewal ranges from $10.18 to $20.00.
Is the first-year price a trap?
For .org the cheapest first year ($10.18) is in line with its renewal ($10.18/yr), so there's no bait-and-switch here. We still rank by 3-year total cost rather than the headline first-year price, because a cheap first year elsewhere can hide a steep renewal.
