Top Registrar in World: Godaddy has only 5.8% of top 16.6 MILLION New GTLD Registrations!

Morning Folks!!

The top 10 new GTLDS have a combined total of 13,319,000 domains registered. That leaves the other 500+++ extensions sharing the remaining 47% of all registrations. But there is a bigger story.

The largest Domain Registrar in the world, Godaddy, with about 75 million domains managed has only 768,000 of those 13.3 Million domains. That's just 5.8% of the top 10 registrations!! Why is that important? Well for one thing Godaddy controls OVER 20% of the world's overall domains. But in the GTLD world, the paltry numbers speak volumes. And it is just 1% of domains managed by Godaddy.

If you are a domainer investing in GTLD's and you can't figure it out why this is important, maybe domains or gtld's ain't your calling!

How did Godaddy do on the next group. Top 11-20?

3.3 Million Domains and 196,000 registered by Godaddy. Under 6%. And if you were to remove .App, then you would be under 3%!!

#11 .Work 25,000 out of 477,000

#12 .men 431 out of 446,000

#13 .bid 800 out of 331,000

#14 .stream 400 out of 326,000

#15 .wang 0 out of 326,000

#16 .App 111,000 of 316,000 (#1 in percentage of registrations for any of the top 20. ONLY 1 out of 2 extensions that Godaddy is #1 out of the top 20)

#17 .000 0 out of 295,000

#18 .space 32,000 out of 274,000

#19 .review 800 out of 265,000

#20 .website 26,000 out of 252,000

That's 16.6 Million from the top 20 of the total 25 million GTLD's. 8.4 million DIVIDED among 500 others!! That's nearly another 13%. So the top 20 account for a hair under 66% of ALL new GTLD's. The other 500 and growing can fight for the other 34%.

Numbers don't lie, PEOPLE DO! So please remember that registrations numbers are inflated. There are some registrars/registry's that I just don't trust. They manipulate the numbers to FOOL DOMAINERS to invest in their .CRAP! Study and you will SEE the fakers! You will SEE the manipulation.

    Great info Rick!
    What we can always count on is the truth from you, in whichever way it comes out of your mouth. Never did like or trust GD, or any registrar that sounds too good to be true.

    I still like the .app extension.
    GoDaddy is still by far the #1 registrar for .app registered domains with over 111k and 35% of the overall pie.
    Next in line is Google with 35k domains and 11% of the pie.

    A lot of those are end-user registrations and not just domainer registrations.

      .App is in the midst of jumping from #16 to #13 with their steady growth.
      I agree, many are legit end users. End users USE Godaddy more than any other registrar by far. They have never even heard of Namecheap and Alibaba and most of the others.

    The manipulation of the new GTLD extensions market is constant.

    I read that, Top, Win, VIP, Pub, Loan, Club, Xyz, Shop, Online, were very appreciated in the Chinese market.

    Now see that the registrars domains of the Asian market are the ones that greater domains GTLD did not expect this result so blunt.

    I also use some GTLD extensions that are not the most registered, one of them is Global, the other Events, the other is Cam and London, always with domain names that their keywords go well with the London extension for a product , service, entertainment, of this great city.

    Happy day.
    Jose.

    although i think people should try to boycott the monopolist google whenever possible, i’ve long been predicting .app would eventually overtake .co and .io as the preferred alternative to .com for many startups (with .org and cctlds staying relevant, while .net continues to fade away). for my best .com names, i also acquire the .org and .app when possible for defensive purposes. cheers

      btw, forgot to mention that i think people should boycott godaddy whenever possible as well. that said, their stake in .app along with google obviously only increases the gtld’s likelihood of widespread use.
