Hey there, Porkbun fans! It’s that unfortunate time where we’ve got to inform you about some domain name prices increasing<\/strong>. To be as clear as possible, it’s not our decision to raise these prices, but we’ve got to be the ones to pass along the news.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The registry behind a large portfolio of domains (which, if you’ve read our other blog posts, you know are also called TLDs) is increasing pricing industry-wide for a handful of different domain extensions on August 26, 2025, at 14:00 UTC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As always, we want to point out this change affects every<\/em><\/strong> registrar that offers these domains, not just us. It includes registrations, renewals, and transfers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Can I Avoid a Domain Name Price Increase?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We can\u2019t stop the domain name price increases from happening, but there are a few things you can do now to save yourself money in the long run!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Already have one or more of these domain extensions?<\/strong> You can lock in today’s domain name price by renewing your domain name<\/a> to the maximum of 10 years. This lets you avoid the price increase for as long as possible.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Looking for a new domain with one of these domain extensions?<\/strong> Now is the time to buy a domain name<\/a> you’ve been eyeing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Our recommendation:<\/strong> Don\u2019t delay, and act now to swoop your savings! You\u2019ll thank yourself down the line. Trust us. \ud83d\udc37<\/p>\n\n\n\n
