How many domains does each registrar have?

[Lisa]

I have been counting again...

Rank - Domains - Registrar
1 - 9,855,539 - Network Solutions
2 - 2,992,486 - Tucows
3 - 2,872,411 - Register.com
4 - 1,577,624 - INWW.com
5 - 1,496,965 - BulkRegister
6 - 1,007,033 - eNom.com
7 - 984,163 - GoDaddy.com

These are the numbers I come up with. Just thought I would share.

What no gandi.net?!? ;)

[Lisa]

15 - 337,732 - Gandi

Lisa, any numbers for strato.de? They are believed to hold between 1,5 - 2 or more Millions.

There's speculation about a cooperation with 1&1 - combined they are said to hold some 4 Mill., or 80% of registered .de

[Lisa]

Sorry Heini,
I only count COM, NET, ORG, INFO, BIZ, and US domains. I am adding a few more gTLDs soon. Unfortunately I have talked with the .DE people and they are not willing to share a complete list of domains. The only thing they will release is the total amount of .DE domains. It is unfortunate because .DE is the second most used domain extension in the world.

Lisa, do you have the figures for OnlineNIC?

[Lisa]

OnlineNIC (D.B.A. China-Channel.com)

19 - 207,223 - China-Channel.com

Thanks for that Lisa. I'm surprised that they're languishing down in 19th place with their pretty competitive $6.69 per annum gtld domain cost. Good service as well I've found.

Lisa, I apologize if this question is inappropriate, but may I ask how and where this information can be found? Is it online somewhere or is it from your hard work researching?

In either case, it's quite interesting and I hope you'll post updates down the road!

Yes, It is the result of lots of Hard work! I am glad to hear people find it useful. I have been producing daily registrar stats for a long time. I am thinking of making all the results public soon. I am not sure how I make money off of them? But I am sure people out there want to know this stuff. Especial because I can produce these stats daily.

I know of only one other company (SnapNames) that produces these types of stats, but they are only monthly and they are often 55+ days delayed. You can sign up for their free report here at [sotd.info...]

If or when I make my results public I will post a link.

That's a brillant resource.

Domain World Wide doesn't have the resources you are seeking for registrar info. <INSERT PLUG>But yes it is a great resource to see how many domains each TLD has.</INSERT PLUG>
