I'm looking to register a new domain but hate how pricing is $0.01 first year, $1M renewal. It doesn't seem like a deal if it's going to cost so much to renew.
Are there any transparent registrars or any tools that will give you a cost over 3 years or something?
I'll be honest, I did Google it but you'll never guess what the top hit was. I didn't click. I'm putting this here in a small attempt to transfer some knowledge to the fediverse.
I've heard good things about cloudflares domain registrar services. I can't vouch for them but when I looked at transferring my domains, their prices were very competitive and sometimes cheaper than the average.
