.Club just passed .Berlin on ntldstats.com, to become the 2nd most registered new domain extension (New gTLD).
.Club is just short of 50,000 registrations while .Berlin is sitting just past 48,000
.Guru continues to led all new gTLD’s with over 57,000 registrations.
.Photography has topped 35,000 registrations.
.Email has topped 30,000 registrations
There are now over 794,000 new gTLD domain names registered and with the launch of several new gTLD’s today when the root zone file next updates the number of New gTLD’s will easily pass 800,000.
There are now 9 new gTLD’s with over 20,000 registrations.
There are 13 with 15,000 or more, 22 have 10,000 or more registrations and 43 have more than 5,000 registrations.
There are 25 fully launched new gTLD’s that have less than 2,500 registrations.
It is also climbing the gTLD sale league. Currently #10 having topped .travel, .tel, .name, aero, and .cat already:

keep chuging out the new gtld hype encouraging domainers who can’t afford them to keep buying them. what % will be renewed? 60%? 70%..40%? its anyone’s guess but there is no denying that a number of domainers are getting themselves in deep with no plan of how to make money from these domains.

I am reporting the number of registrations, how are numbers hype?
What percentage will be renewed ? I have no idea there are more than 100 of these already out and they will have varying renewal rates.
Do you know what the renewal rate is for .com?
Numbers aren’t hype, you’re right but it seems like 90% of the articles these days are about the new gtlds. Sure there is lots of news about them and they get people fired up in a postive or negative way but its impossible to think you are not biased towards wanting to push them since you have invested so much into them, not just yourself but your consulting business and DNA. And no, I don’t know the average renewal rate for .com’s but I do know I renew 95% of mine.
“.Guru continues to led all new gTLD’s”
thanks to IT-guys’ .vanity 🙂
when will the distinction disappear
between old and new gld
as
mobi blows them all away at 900k regs
.asia at 355k regs etc etc…
but
club leads the pack with 50k regs
just wondering ,,, scratching my head
.mobi started in 2005 some 9 years ago all on its own with no competition
.Asia started 2007 some 7 years ago again all on its own with the world domain world as it stage
.Club launched a week ago
To answer you question I would say a few years but lets be fair about it
Maybe you should subtract the mystery domainer who registered 7500 .club names in shame of exposing their whois info:
xbox1.club
playboyclub.club
bondageclub.club
boobsclub.club
bookclub.club
Whoever this person is, will most likely drop their 7500 domains going forward, especially if they are more like the above.

Those are registrations I can’t delete those no more than I can delete aaaaaaaaaa.com from the count of .com domains.
We write about anything going on in the space right now the new gTLD news is dominating
hahahahhahahaahah @ the people always saying “why are you covering so many stories about new gTLDs.” gee, i dont know. its not like its the biggest change to the DNS, like, ever…
didnt you know tho, if you keep your voice down at a reasonable level the new gTLD will go away like .mobi – dont worry guys.. mobi and biz are pretty similar to whats going on right now.
lets talk about interesting things like the rise of PPC and how i bought highrisewindowcleaningsolutions.com for a quite reasonable 27k in 2007. i didnt overpay. i plan to flip it. lets talk more about whats been going on since 1985. basically, if it happened after 1986 i dont really want to hear about it.
get to work
