Dynadot

About 610k a month, which is 7.5% of every domain registered anywhere. That counts new registrations rather than the domains it holds, which is a much larger number and one no public data source measures directly.

Its share of new registrations has risen by 2.1 percentage points against the same months of last year, to 7.5%. Share is the useful measure here: the whole market grew, so a registrar can register more domains than last year and still be losing ground.

It registered domains across 595 extensions this year. 14.5% of what it sells is .com.

.bid. It handles 83% of everything registered under that extension, 10.8 times its 7.5% share of the market overall. That ratio is the useful one: it shows where a registrar is unusually strong rather than simply where it sells the most.

The average is 10 characters, 38.5% contain a digit and 10% contain a hyphen. A high digit share indicates bulk registration rather than names someone sat down and chose, so this is the closest thing to a read on who a registrar's customers actually are.

0.5% do, against 99.5% who take a single year. Multi-year registrations are a minority almost everywhere, so the differences between registrars are large in relative terms.

30% use dyna-ns.net. About 5% of them sit on a parking or for-sale page rather than a working site. Measured across 2025, the last period for which nameserver data is complete.

May 2027 is the busiest month ahead, with about 1.2M reaching their renewal date. Renewal peaks trail registration peaks by exactly a year, so whatever is not renewed then becomes available again.

Yes. Dynadot is an ICANN-accredited registrar, IANA ID 472, and sells directly to the public with no membership or eligibility requirement.

Yes. A domain can be transferred to another registrar sixty days after it is registered or last transferred, which is an ICANN rule rather than a registrar policy. You need the authorisation code from your current registrar and the domain must not be locked.
