Moving Domains to Cloudflare

While clicking around in Cloudflare today, I found this button.

It got me into thinking about what I paid last year for a .com domain and this is what I see when I looked at the order history.

I was surprised to see the difference. At the current exchange rate, Cloudflare will only cost me MYR34.89 (US$8.03 with ICANN fee) for a .com domain, which is a saving of MYR40.33 per domain, per year.

Looking at all domains transferable to Cloudflare, this is what it would cost me if I renew them right now:

If I transfer them to Cloudflare, it will cost me US$60.28 (MYR261.93) per year, which is a saving of US$66.75 (MYR290.07) equivalent to a year of mid-size shared hosting in Malaysia, or a full year of hosting cost with my current cloud provider.

Mind. Blown. 🤯

Cloudflare offers at-cost pricing for registration and renewal of many TLDs, but unfortunately .name is not one of them so I won’t be able to move romantika.name to them. For now.
