A friend has a .family domain with a yearly $1,600 renewal fee at hover.com . which is over the top , is there a way we could reduce the renew fee?
Thanks

I am not sure what % of that fee is registry (probably most) or registrar markup (probably much less).A friend has a .family domain with a yearly $1,600 renewal fee at hover.com . which is over the top , is there a way we could reduce the renew fee?

Where could we find out how many .family domains are registered?

Has your friend considered shopping around for a better renewal rate and transferring out? They do vary per registrar.A friend has a .family domain with a yearly $1,600 renewal fee at hover.com . which is over the top , is there a way we could reduce the renew fee?

The registry premium is likely to be the bulk of the price.Just tried GD and its $1,350 a year .

That's a start. Keep shopping around. Have you tried Porkbun?Just tried GD and its $1,350 a year .
It's basically a dead extension when it comes to resale.And can only find these .family sales?

Is this registration a domain investment or for development?
I can't think of a single term in .family that I would pay $1,350 - $1,600 a year for.
If this is a domain investment, that is insanity.

The only conceivable way I could see paying a premium price is if it was related to a developed website.What about domain development?

As a pure domain investment this type of money yearly, in an obscure extension, makes no sense.

The best way to add additional value to any domain is development.Yes sent Porkbun a message .
Whats the best way to add value to the domain if he decides ti keep it?
And keep in mind that if someone has Xfamily.com, one could always take TheXFamily.com as an alternative, if available. Adding the "the" in front to get the desired .com is often a decent alternative.
Well, there really are plenty of alternatives out there. The reassuring thing, sticking with the .com,.net, and .org options is at least to not have surprises.Yep its already taken .

Hopefully they have remembered to shut auto-renew off. They will not want that bill arriving unexpectedly.
Smart man. To pay upwards $1600 for a renewal doesn't make sense. What we are hearing on the forum is folks getting shocked with the autorenew and unexpected credit card bill statements. The best way to prevent that is not register such domains in the first place--even if the price is extremely low for the first year.He owns the hyphen in the com .
