This is no April’s fools joke.
The wholesale price of .Org and .Biz registrations and renewals will increase in April 1, 2011, so you might want to renew any of your domains now at the lower price.
On April 1 the price of a .Org registration or reneal at the wholesale level will go from $6.75 to $7.21.
The price of a .Biz registration or renewal will increase from $6.85 to $7.30.
Once again these are wholesale prices.
What you will pay is determined by your registrar, who may just pass the increase through or tack on a little more on.
So if you have any .Biz or .Org domains you plan on holding onto your may want to renew them before the price increase.
The chance of .ORG being widely resolved on the NEW DNS Platforms, going forward is SLIM and/or NONE. (Take your pick)
New TLDs (and OLD TLDs) will be paying millions to be resolved.
Some TLDs will not have enough money or Good Karma to be resolved.
.ORG will likely become a big IPv6 insider TLD for Geeks in June 2011.
The New DNS being shown in Washington DC next week will only use .COM & .CO
Great reminder, thanks for that
Time to drop some .org and .biz domains.
