Cheapest renewal over time
Stays flat
Cloudflare's price doesn't move at renewal — $20.20 both years one and beyond. 5 years: $101.00. There's no first-year discount hiding a jump here, so pick this one on registrar quality rather than price alone.
The cheapest renewal comes from Cloudflare at $20.20 — the priciest runs $79.99. Multiply that 4.0x gap by every year you keep the domain, and it's real money. That's less than half the $43.99 median for New generic extensions, which is unusual.
