Affordable ccTLD registrars (e.g. .am, .li etc)? - Webmaster Forums - Webmaster forum for HTML, PHP, ASP, CSS and more

As I stated in the title, I'm looking for a registrar or reseller who offers registration of foreign country-code top-level domains at a reasonable price. Also, if anyone can explain why various ccTLDs have different prices, I would love to hear it. It makes no sense to me, for example, that the ccTLD for Åland Island (.ax), Bahamas (.bs), and St. Helena (.sh) all go for about $100/year, while India (.in) is about $8/year, and Guernsey (.gg) is $275/year!

Any insight (as well as suggestions for registry options) will be greatly appreciated. Thanks! (:

Do the diverse prices have something to do with the location of region for ccTLD registrars ? the gap is very wide . good choice for one.

That depends the currency rate. If you sell a domain for $100 a year in countries like India, pakistan.. no one would buy that is too much for them. So you need to currency convert the USD with their currency and then will understand why the variation is.

The price depends on many factors: the workers' salary, rent prices of certain country, financial politycs.
