You can now buy a $38,000 plan from WordPress.com for a century-long domain name and hosting

WordPress.com, the well-known blogging platform, has recently unveiled its 100-Year Plan, a unique offering focused on providing long-term digital security and stability. The plan includes a century-long domain registration, improved ownership protocols, high-end WordPress hosting, and round-the-clock premium support.

The company highlights that this plan is not only about the present but also an investment in the future. It serves as a way to secure one's digital legacy or gift a century of reliable platform service to someone else, underlining the limitless potential of the future.

Unlike conventional plans that require annual payments, the 100-Year Plan requires an upfront payment, ensuring the website and its domain name's operation for at least a century. The cost for this service is set by Automattic, WordPress.com's parent company, at $38,000, which breaks down to $380 per year (or $32 per month) for a hundred years.

However, this plan requires users to place their trust in Automattic, believing that the company will adequately maintain their websites for a minimum of 100 years.
