The trap

Hostinger's $1.99 first year isn't really a price — it's a hook. Renewal jumps to $47.99, over 24.1x what you paid to sign up. 5 years: $193.95. The opening number tells you almost nothing about what you'll actually pay.

Cheapest transfer

Cloudflare has the cheapest transfer price at $30.20, if you already own this domain elsewhere and want to move it.

Which costs less over 5 years?

Porkbun direct costs $130.27 over 5 years — the discount-then-transfer route through Hostinger and Cloudflare undercuts it at $122.79. Worth the extra step this time.

Which costs less over 3 years?

The gap is smaller at 3 years — $62.39 versus $67.45 — but the transfer route still wins.

Renewal prices span $30.20 at Cloudflare up to $68.99 elsewhere. A 2.3x difference like that adds up fast across renewals. That undercuts the $43.99 median across New generic extensions.

💡 Bottom line — If you're keeping .living for a while, know that Porkbun's real five-year cost is $130.27, not Hostinger's $1.99 headline. Some registrars let you lock in years upfront before the price changes.

.living questions

What is a .living domain?

.living is a generic domain extension. It is operated by Internet Naming Co and has been part of the domain name system since 2015.

How much does a .living domain cost?

The cheapest first year is $1.99 at Hostinger, and renewal is $47.99. Over five years that comes to $193.95, staying with that same registrar the whole time.

Why does .living cost more to renew?

Registrars discount the first year to win the sale, then charge the standard rate afterwards. On .living the renewal is 24.1× the opening price, so the advertised figure is a poor guide to what you will actually pay.

Which registrars sell .living?

16 of the registrars we track currently offer it. The table above lists all of them with current registration, renewal and transfer prices.
