Tucows Inc. reduced its list price for wholesale domain name registrations, effective immediately. From now on, the breakdown of costs of a domain name is transparent to customers, and displays Registry and ICANN fees as well as the Tucows management fee.

The new pricing structure will give wholesale domain customers more visibility ahead of the announced October 2007 Registry domain name price increases.

Through the management fee, Tucows wholesale domains customers receive access to a domain name suggestion tool powered by DomainsBot, a 50% share of net domain parking advertising revenues, and the ability to sell domains from a portfolio of hundreds of thousands of premium domain names from the domain aftermarket. Starting September 1, WHOIS Privacy and Managed DNS will come with each domain name purchase at no charge. Tucows wholesale domain customers also get access to a library of APIs and web-based tools for provisioning and management of domains along with Tier II technical support.

“We’ve been committed to providing transparency regarding ICANN fees to our wholesale customers since 2004,” Adam Eisner, Product Manager of Domains, said in a PRNewswire release. “In fact, we lowered the ICANN fee charged to our wholesale customers twice since March 2007. Today, not only have we reduced our prices, we’re providing transparency into the cost of a domain name.
