What a domain really costs over 2 years, checked live across registrars. DNS for your app, done right. Free.

@hugospdx Worth running the 5-year number first.
At the cheapest registrar today:
.dev $57,
.app $65,
.io $198.99,
.ai $400 (sold in 2-year minimums).
Same name, 7x apart. All side by side: tldmath.com/tld?utm_source…
@satya5614@TheMaran Less than it used to be. For a .com, ICANN's Registration Data Policy already hides your name, street address, phone and email from public lookups; only state or province and country stay visible. A privacy service swaps those too for its own details.
@Greegman Good tip. One catch: it's receive-only, so replies still go out from your personal address unless you add a sending service. Turning it on adds the 3 MX records and SPF for you; add a _dmarc TXT too. Inboxes compared: tldmath.com/email?utm_sour…
@XMasalaX .dev has one catch people miss: it's on the browser HSTS preload list, so it only loads over HTTPS. Fine on Vercel, Netlify or Cloudflare where certs are automatic, but a plain-HTTP setup won't work. And .ai is sold in 2-year minimums.
@qasimbizs The $9 is year one. The line that repeats is the renewal: today the cheapest .com first year is $9.99 and renews at $19.99, while the lowest .com renewal anywhere is $10.46. Every registrar side by side: tldmath.com/tld/com?utm_so…
@sofianemyhou Good habit to start now: track renewals, they're what a portfolio really costs. If those 19 are .com, the lowest renewal today is $10.46, so $198.74 a year to hold them; at $19.99 it's $379.81. Paste them in to see each one: tldmath.com/watch?utm_sour…
@Andrey__HQ Worth checking the robots.txt part: old blanket rules often block the search bots (OAI-SearchBot, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot), not just the training ones, and then llms.txt never gets read. Free per-bot check: tldmath.com/launch/ai?utm_…
@slaviknowsbest@awscloud The good news: your setup carries over. DKIM, SPF and DMARC are per-sender records, so a move is new DKIM records plus one SPF include, same DMARC policy. Sending services compared by monthly volume: tldmath.com/email/app?utm_…
@RhysSullivan It works, with two catches: ICANN blocks transfers for 60 days after registration, and a transfer charges for a year (added on, not lost). On .com today: a $9.99 first year that renews at $19.99, vs $10.46 for the lowest renewal anywhere.
Let the extension finish the word.
stud + .io = studio $60.99
foc + .us = focus $11.26
log + .in = login $12.40
co + .de = code $6.97
desk + .top = desktop $6.26
dream + .team = dream team $37.07
Cheapest 2 years for each extension, today. Type your own words:
tldmath.com/tools/domain-w…
@NicolaManzini@levelsio The receiving half can be free too: Cloudflare Email Routing forwards you@yourdomain to an inbox you already have, and adds the 3 MX records and SPF for you. It's receive-only, so pair it with a sending service for replies: tldmath.com/email/cloudfla…
@davidtranwd That gap is common on .com. Today the cheapest first year is $9.99 and it renews at $19.99, while the cheapest .com renewal anywhere is $10.46.
Every registrar's renewal, read daily: tldmath.com/tld/com?utm_so…
@tantrumsofsadhu Congrats! One quick check worth doing: AI crawlers and some search bots don't run JavaScript, so if the portfolio only renders client-side they see an empty page.
This shows what they can read: tldmath.com/launch/ai?utm_…
@heyheyfred@wyatt_khos Part of that exists: our free MCP connector lets an agent read live MX, SPF and DKIM, plus registrar and renewal date, and check for one SPF and a DMARC record.
Headers and reputation aren't covered: tldmath.com/connector?utm_…
@nalinrajput23 For rankings it's a tie: Google treats all five as generic, .io and .ai included, so none gets a boost. What does differ: .app is HSTS-preloaded, so it only loads over HTTPS, and people still type and trust .com first.
@metachargers@spaceship Painful. For anyone holding .si: restore fees after expiry run $16.81 to $120.00 today at registrars that publish one, and .si follows its own registry's deletion rules, not ICANN's.
Email reminders before each expiry: tldmath.com/watch?utm_sour…
@alexgroberman Worth adding the names, since that's what robots.txt matches on: OAI-SearchBot (ChatGPT search) vs GPTBot (training), Claude-SearchBot vs ClaudeBot, and PerplexityBot for Perplexity answers. Disallow only the training ones and you stay citable.
@pradslabs Nice pricing. Worth building in early: Gmail and Yahoo require bulk senders (5,000+ a day) to have SPF, DKIM and DMARC on the From domain plus one-click unsubscribe, so walking each customer through their DNS records saves a lot of support later.
