Why is renewal higher than the first year?

The first year is marketing and the renewal is the business. BeforeYouRegister flags any ending where renewal passes twice the first-year price.

What is the $0.18 ICANN fee?

ICANN charges $0.18 per year on generic endings like .com. Every price on this site already includes it.

Porkbun, NameSilo, Spaceship and Cloudflare include it free. The table notes where privacy is paid.
