It depends norally these are country tlds i guess and country decides the price

[JonCat]

Name.com has them for $4.99USD yr, we purchased a few. Oddly however, 2 char ones can only be purchased from nic.im for £495.

i assume thats First year price

[JonCat]

Going to have to assume so, I can not find renewal pricing on it, and name.com won't let me purchase .im domains for multiple years. $4.99 is not bad, and a year is enough time to tell if a domain is worth keeping.

[juani]

yes, name.com is offering .im domains for 4.99 USD for a year. they say it's 93% off the regular price... so i'd expect the renewal to be close to 70 or more USD...

First time heard .im domain and got know this domain thought name.com promotion, is this a new domain extension or old extension? coz many domain been taken and the price seem high

Don't break the .com rule unless you are running local targeted business IMO.

why the hell would someone want a .im

[dhunmaari]

because easy to get key words which are looking for.Using .im domain can do a nice domain hacks.eg tr.im, sl.im

[Bohra]

why the hell would someone want a .im
