Q1 2015 gTLD Industry Statistics & Business Implications

At NamesCon 2015, held earlier this year, Berry Cobb of TLDWatch (@tldwatch) and .TBA presented an industry overview and the performance in 2014.  Based on feedback we received we thought it would be beneficial to provide quarterly updates, with  Q1 2015 gTLD Industry Statistics & Business Implications being the first, while incorporating the ideas we received from participants at NamesCon.

You can listen to the NamesCon presentation with audio here or view only the slide deck here.

Some of the changes and highlights in the Q1 2015 gTLD Industry Statistics & Business Implications include:

  • Top 20 Circa 2012 gTLDs
  • Pre-2012 Circa Group 2 TLDs such as .asia, .name, .pro, etc. decline in Q1 2015
  • Top 25 Circa 2012 gTLDs in terms of registration revenues and volumes
  • Retail price variances between the four tiers
  • Correlation between price and volume in the tiers

We welcome any feedback or questions you may have the Q1 2015 gTLD Industry Statistics & Business Implications. The next scheduled review will be in July for the second quarter of 2015.
