Domain Name Statistics

Over 31 million domain names have been registered worldwide at this time (see charts) and the domain name market remains hot, and is still very young! Reportedly over 10,000 domain names are being registered daily.

Nearly 80% of domain name registrants own only one domain name. The average number of domain names per owner is expected to increase to four (including businesses and consumers) by the beginning of 2003.

66% of all domain names registered to date are currently used for a live website.

USA Today recently reported that over 170,000 new people are getting online every 24 hours.

69% of all domain name registrations have originated in the United States.

The first domain name ever registered was Symbolics.com on March 15, 1985. From that date, it took 15 months for the first 100 names to be registered. A large majority of these names were registered by universities and Fortune 500 companies.
