questions

.vip domain — straight answers

How much does a .vip domain cost?

The lowest first-year price is $4.64 at Cloudflare, then $4.64 to renew/yr. Over 3 years the cheapest total cost of ownership is $13.92. The median renewal across the 6 registrars we compare is $5.20/yr, so picking the cheapest scores 52/100 on value.

Where is the cheapest place to renew a .vip domain?

Cloudflare has the lowest ongoing renewal at $4.64/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 6 registrars the annual renewal ranges from $4.64 to $5.77.

Is the first-year price a trap?

For .vip the cheapest first year ($4.64) is in line with its renewal ($4.64/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.
