    High renewal cost at Enom

    I only use Enom if I get a name from a forum sale and always transfer them out. Just before expiration a dnf member pushed me a name that expired yesterday and also can't be transferred within 7 days (too late). I went to renew it but they want $29.95 for 1-year which I am not going to pay. Anyone know how to renew it at a more competitive cost?

    If your enom account is managed by a reseller, they can renew this for 9.95 or lower. But if you have this direct from enom, that is the standard fee.

    Hope this help.

    you can always pay the $6995.00 and get your account changed to a $7.95 reseller account

    and the $6995.00 is credited to your account for renewals, registrations, etc.


    then you can offer reseller accounts to others for $8.95 and keep $1.00 for each reg or renewal they purchase.

    other plans are also available


    i'd advise you to let another enom reseller set-up you a cheaper account for future use


    imo...

    They told you it was too late, I just did a transfer out with a name that was about 3 days expired but I had to contact them first and they sent me the auth.

    According to denny007 the blocking of transferring out to another registrar even post-expiration is illegal per ICANN rules. But good luck arguing with them. I'd renew at whatever rate and then transfer out.

    You can create an account at a enom reseller. Push the domain to the new account, renew it, then push it back to your main enom account. I've used dnbuy.net, but I'm sure someone on here knows of a cheaper one...

    Why is the Enom renewal cost so high? They must lose a lot of business over it.

    Don't you need to have $100 cash in your acct to get the lower cost?

    You'd have to wait 7 days between pushes.

    eNom has a business model catering to resellers. The $100 is the minimum refill amount.

    That's it. Enom set pricing so as not to compete with their resellers.

    That's a good business approach in my opinion.

    They lost a lot of my business.
    Even when I buy a name from some one I just drop the name or get that to other registrars

    It's part of my monthly renewal reminder:

    Renewals - check all registrars. Enom transfers. Dotster transfers.

    I pay 8.58 at eNom as a reseller and when i push a domain into an account I create for others, I can set prices at whatever I wish. Perhaps that is how the seller makes a little extra cash from each sale on a yearly basis.
    Good luck,

    If you want to save the registration fee cost at eNom, you should upgrade your account to be a reseller account. I have just paid for 9.50 buck per year for each domain that is similar to other companies.

    I like eNom.com system because it has good api.
