Registrar figures are for November 2025. ICANN publishes monthly registry reports about three months in arrears, and they are the only source that attributes domains to registrars — zone files do not contain registrar information. Methodology.

Do people keep it?

all renewal rates ›

Of the 15,195 domains that came up for renewal between May 2025 and Apr 2026, the share renewed rather than deleted. How this is computed.

For comparison, the median gTLD keeps 69.15% and .com, .net and .org together keep 73.25%. One caveat specific to this TLD: 1 filing in this window reports up to 10,617 renewals or deletions against a peak of 4,577 domains, which is not possible. The figure above is as filed; setting those months aside gives 91.58%.

Data currency. Domain counts on this page are from zone files dated 19 August 2026 and refresh daily. Registrar figures are from ICANN's monthly registry reports for April 2026, which ICANN publishes about three months in arrears; zone files contain no registrar information, so no fresher source exists. Full detail on methodology and live pipeline status.
