I noticed something odd while browsing AWS Route53’s domain pricing. Nearly all TLDs are in the $10–$50 range, but .click is listed at just $3/year—much lower than anything else they offer.
Here’s the pricing page (which links to the full PDF):

I can't find any evidence that Amazon owns the .click TLD. Does anyone know why .click is priced so much lower than every other TLD?
Always look at the 10 year cost of a domain. Add everything to cart that is interesting, crank the term up to 10 years then pick what seems the most reasonable.
Yes, that's what I find interesting about this. It's $3/year for first year and renewal, and you can do up to 10 years. It's also from a reputable registrar not one you've never heard of.
You get what you pay for. Even the name sounds a bit spammy (like xyz). "Vanity-plate" TLDs also seem to have a lot less regulatory limits/caps - so don't be surprised if the annual rate fluctuates widely unlike the more stable TLDs (com, org, and net).
