What is the cheapest .net domain registrar?

Do .net domains have hidden renewal fees?

The lowest .net renewal we track is $11.11/year, and some registrars renew at several times their promo price. Every row above shows the renewal rate next to the first-year deal for exactly this reason.

Is a cheap .net domain safe to use?
Yes — a .net domain is the same domain whichever registrar sells it, because they all register it with the same registry. What actually differs is the renewal price, transfer policy and whether WHOIS privacy costs extra. We only list established registrars that publish their own pricing, and every price links back to that page.
