[toddchina]

i just saw some websites selling chinese domain like ".com.cn" and ".cn". The prices are always up tp 60 USD/year.

Let me tell u that the prices of com.cn and cn is about 8 USD.

and now the Chinese domain is selling at a historically low price, only 0.15 USD/year. but this low price is only available before may 31stand only for first year, the renewal fee is about 8 USD.

I am Todd Zhang from China, very pleased to join this community.

bluesea:

at what price did u buy the cn domain?

[Webwork]

Hello toddchina and bluesea. Welcome to WebmasterWorld. :)

Why is the price so low?

Is the low price due to government policy about price for .cn domains?

Is the low price is a "registrar promotion or sale"? If it is please be advised that we do not permit members to promote private company sales news.

hello Webwork

the low price is made to make cn domain more popular, it is countrywide and the only difference is the renewal fee of different sellers.

I post this to remind u guys, do not be fleeced by some businessman coz i have seen some ppl is selling cn domain at an amazingly high price.

trust me, i have read the must-know rules in this forum, i won't post any ADs. ^_^

I've been a bit uneasy about leaving this thread open as it just looks like an open invitation to get into domain pricing and domain service providers. It isn't. I just thought it was a bit newsworthy that there was a nation wide push to promote the .cn domain.
