## Methodology

- Source: TLD-List registrar price comparison, collected 2026-07-28. Prices are not live and can change at any time.
- Prices are retail-style registration signals in USD. Promotional first-year rates, premium names, taxes and multi-year rules can differ at checkout.
- Extensions without any listed registration price are excluded. 2,686 of 2,686 extensions are included.
- Registrar counts use only offers that list a registration price.
- Price bands are half-open: a price of exactly $10.00 falls in the $10 to under $20 band.
- "About the same" means two values differ by less than 5%.
- A finding is published only when at least 20 rows are behind it.
- Percentages are rounded to the nearest whole number, so a column can add up to 99% or 101%.
- No field in this dataset is entered by visitors.
