nTLDStats offers extensive statistics for new gTLDs. It has been created by greenSec Solutions in March 2013 and provides detailed statistics, such as total registered domain names, domains registered through a specific registrar, among others.

In March 2014 the domain name blog TheDomains did an interview with the founder of nTLDStats to find out his motivation behind this project. [1]

Services

nTLDStats provides free statictis about:

  • Registered new gTLD Domain Names
  • Registrars
  • Registry Backend Provider
  • Registry Operators
  • Registrants
  • Countries
  • Whois
  • Launch Dates

Since May 2014 registries, registrants and large domain holders can update their data.[2] They also provide an API to let them update their data.[3]

Controversy

Even though nTLDstats became quite popular, there are still doubts that the provided statistics are accurate. The main reason for those divergences shown by competitors are different methods being used to determine statistics or excluding domain names as internal ones.[4]
