@jane_ffm Appreciate you disclosing your affiliation upfront. That's the rule here.

No logs, no proof. I have logs.

In France OVHcloud is everywhere but their domain management is a disaster. I moved 40 domains to Gandi last year, got 20% off first year by asking. Renewal discount? Nonexistent. They don't negotiate on renewals at all.

This thread is making me realize I should just consolidate everything. I have domains scattered across 4 registrars like an idiot.

Consolidation is the real play. I had 30 domains across three registrars, moved everything to one, then negotiated. The total volume matters more than per-registrar.

I tried this with my local registrar in Turkey. They don't do bulk discounts at all, period. Ended up moving most to Cloudflare Registrar for cost anyway, but they also don't negotiate. Flat pricing is flat pricing.

Cloudflare is great for straightforward pricing but you will never get a discount from them. They don't have sales people for domains, it's all automated. Good for transparency, bad for this thread's strategy.

Following this. I have 6 domains so probably too small but good to know for when I scale up.

I keep domains at multiple registrars on purpose. If one gets compromised I don't lose everything. Security through inconvenience.
