Google will pay for the domain for Alphabet just $ 8 per year

The recently created Alphabet holding, which also includes Google, has registered the domain abc.xyz. The administrator of the .xyz domain zone is Daniel Nagari, who paid $ 186,000 last year for the administration right. Domain registration and renewal in this zone costs the registrant only $ 8, Fusion writes . Thus, the abc.xyz extension will cost the holding a similar amount. True, the registration of the premium domain "abc", most likely, cost the Alphabet holding more than $ 8. Unfortunately, neither the zone administrator nor the domain owner discloses the amount of the transaction.



Interestingly, Google corporation itself owns the top-level domain zone “.app”, which cost the “Good Corporation” $ 25 million. Such large amounts of money the corporation had to pay for this zone, because nobody registered it initially, and after that the right to administer this zone put up for auction. For the right to manage the zone, many companies offered large sums, but Google was the winner.
