While some registrars, such as TransIP, promote first-year pricing as low as €0.59, the renewal cost rises sharply to €14.99 annually thereafter. Over a standard 4-year registration period, this results in a total cost of €46 – a figure that may come as a surprise to those who expected the savings to continue. By contrast, Web World maintains a straightforward, predictable pricing structure:

It can’t contain anything except letters (a – z), numbers (0 – 9) and hyphens (-).
It has to be at least two characters long, but no more than sixty-three.
It can’t be anything that’s inconsistent with public order or decency.
A handful of special names aren’t allowed: ftp.nl, mail.nl, nl.nl, www.nl.
It has to meet the technical specifications that accompany our General Terms and Conditions for .nl Registrants. Your registrar (hosting service provider) will probably take care of that for you.
There are numerous factors that determine what a domain name is worth. Alexandpatswedding.nl is attractive to an engaged couple called Alex and Pat, but isn’t very useful to anyone else. Names that can be valuable include:
Names based on generic terms that people looking for products and services may search for (e.g. laptops.nl), but aren’t protected brands (such as unox.nl, which only Unox can use)
Names based on common surnames, especially surnames that a lot of traders use (e.g. jansen.nl)
Names that are short and easy to remember
Names that may match abbreviations (e.g. names with fewer than six characters)
Names that you know how to spell as soon as you hear them (e.g. on the radio)
