Top 10 Domain Registrars (and their prices)
The largest ICANN domain Registrar – GoDaddy – possesses almost 30% of the market. GoDaddy has always been offering great prices (and lots of value added services) – and probably this is the reason of their place on the vault. The runner up – Enom – is far behind with its 8% of the market share.
The table below shows 12 registrars – because two from the first 10 don’t have a retail offer – only for resellers.
