I was thinking domainers and maybe registry representatives can post hints, current deals, and deals to come as Black Friday approaches! This can be a win win for domainers and registries. This can be a great on going thread if we contribute to it regularly making it easy to search for discounts and deals. As it can be hard and time consuming searching registry by registry for a wonderful promo in niche TLDs ccTLDS and GTLDs as some of them are only for a few days and even a few hours long. I'm thinking something like below. It doesn't have to be just like that but the more details the better. Happy Hunting

Keep an eye on Namecheap they've done .99 cent transfers past Black Fridays / cyber Mondays.

What does "while supplies last" reeeally mean for digital goods? ;)
(rhetorical question)

Just scan the alpnames.com and find some new Gtlds are only $0.75 on Black Friday such as .party, .accountant, .download, .science etc. And .top is only $0.6 with mobik website builder and the Chinese extension .wang is only $ 7.99.

Seems like all the big sales promos and deals these days are for the crap extensions no one else wants to buy.

Live Promo- Just picked up a few
NameCheap.com ---> .COMs $5.88/year +ICAAN fee new registration

I believe should be lower Black Friday and Cyber Monday. But this isn't bad for now.

Lots of registrars have a limit on the number of domains they will offer a special price for. Happens often.

I reg'd 20 at that price but heard someone say they did 25, so it's at least that many. Sometimes the promo price doesn't get shown/added so you might have to refresh the page to get the price. I had to refresh once to get the promo...

Does anyone know of any deals on .io?

None I've seen thus far for .io. They're an expensive option for domainers, relatively speaking. Hope there is one, though - had my eye on a few names.

Namecheap looks to be winning this: (from https://blog.namecheap.com/black-friday-cyber-monday-48-hours-of-deals-headed-your-way/)
Our annual Black Friday/Cyber Monday Blowout Bonanza is by far the best time to save the most on a whole spread of our domain, hosting and security products. Every hour during Black Friday Nov. 27, we’ll be offering two new terrific opportunities to save big, and we’ll do the same thing again on Cyber Monday, Nov. 30. Don’t see something that spins your wheel right away? Our handy deals tracker will be listing upcoming deals so you can jump on the ones you want as soon as they go live.

Apparently there will be a .com .net and .org transfer available during this day.

So far promotions have been somewhat uninteresting to say the least.

My advice to you:
  • prepare an eventual list of most valued domains older than 60 days that you want to transfer.
  • Include the Authorization Codes to fasten the process - you only have one hour per promotion, you must act fast, if you must ask for the auth code individually things might get complicated.
  • promotions reset "Per-household limits", so you might have several opportunities to save money.
Have a nice Black Friday!
