Registrar statistics

All the organizations that publish registrar rankings work from the same data sources: raw data released daily in the form of Registry Zone files, from which are derived Domain name registry Whois, domain registrar Whois, and Domain name servers. The published rankings differ in which top-level domains (TLDs) are used, and in the frequency of updates. Published rankings and reports include:

They include .com, .net, .org, .info, .biz, and .us in their totals.

* Weekly, WebHosting.info, operated by Directi, updates their [http://www.webhosting.info/registrars/top-registrars/global/ published numbers] . They state that they count “Total Domains” and do not specifically include or exclude any TLDs.
