Price evidence is not the same as “checked today”. AVerifiedbadge means we read the figure from that registrar’s own published price list; the date shown is when we read it. ASnapshotbadge means the figure comes from an openly licensed dated dataset and the date shown is that dataset’s observation date — the registrar may have changed price since.Stalemeans the evidence is older than 30 days and should be treated as a historical reference, not a quote. Only rows we verified from the registrar itself can be labelled “cheapest”.

3-year cost = first-year registration + 2 × standard renewal at the same registrar; shown only when the source publishes both prices. A low first-year promotional price can still renew high — compare the renewal column for the long-term picture. Standard list prices are shown; premium domain names and registry eligibility rules can change the final amount.

Links to registrars are ordinary links with no tracking parameters; price rankings depend only on published prices. Sources: price data sources & licences. Verify the current price at the registrar before purchasing.

Practical context

Google Registry-operated TLDs carried a public HTTPS-only requirement under HSTS preloading at launch. Because that requirement is a registry/operational setting rather than something IANA records, confirm it on the registry page linked above before relying on it.
