To view the price of any standard or premium domain:
- Visit your WordPress.com dashboard.
- Navigate to Upgrades → Domains (or Hosting → Domains if using WP-Admin).
- Click the “Add a domain” button.
- Search for the domain you’re interested in.
Premium domains have a higher perceived value because they are short and memorable. Therefore, they are more expensive than a standard domain.
Premium pricing can vary from slightly higher than the standard price to up to ten, a hundred, or a thousand times more! The price of a premium domain is primarily determined by the registry for each TLD/extension (i.e., the characters to the right of the dot like .com or .blog.) Since registrars (that’s us) must pay the registry for each domain, registrars must factor in the registry’s pricing model to determine how much to charge customers. Domains can’t be purchased directly from the registry, only through a registrar like WordPress.com.
At a high level, registries assign one of two main pricing models to domains: standard and premium. The prices of standard domain TLDs are listed on our Domain Pricing page.
The registry also determines the renewal pricing for premium domains. In some cases, the domain renews at the same premium price as the initial registration. In other cases, renewals are at a lower standard price. In other cases, renewals are lower than the purchase price but higher than the standard price.
For transparency, we display the renewal price along with the registration price upfront before you purchase a premium domain:
Once a domain has been purchased, we also show the renewal price in your dashboard.
Premium domains are subject to the same refund and cancelation policy as our standard-priced domains. Refunds will only be given if the domain is fully canceled within 96 hours of the initial purchase (registration) or renewal. Due to the pricing for these domains, we cannot make exceptions to this policy.
We offer one free year of domain registration with the purchase of any WordPress.com annual plan. Because premium domain prices can be much higher than standard pricing, premium domains are not eligible to be registered, renewed, or transferred using the free domain offer. They are also exempt from special offers, including coupons and other promotions.
