A .SEO new gTLD coming in 2026 ?
The first Round of the ICANN new gTLD program in 2012 brought many interesting surprises with new domain names dedicated to very specific professions, many of these are, or are not, related to the Internet. Ten years later, while potential applicants are wondering how to submit their new gTLD application and how to profit from it, this question turns out to be a very important one : how deep is a potential string connected to the use of the Internet and why should an applicant wonder about this? Let’s focus on the .SEO Top-Level Domain.

New gTLDs : James is doing good...but not only
I like to refer in terms of volumes and recently noticed that the .BOND new gTLD has 544,071 domain names created in its root. Yes : more than 500,000 domain names ending in ".bond" instead of ".com" or any other extension. On the list of all new gTLDs from Round one of the ICANN new gTLD program, it stands in place 15 : not bad.
If I wonder who uses these domain names and what for, I also noticed that most other TLDs from this multiple registry seem to follow the same strategy : "volumes".
The interesting thing I see here is that Shortdot SA, which owns other Top-Level Domains (.CFD, .SBS, .ICU and .CYOU has all ot its TLDs listed in the TOP 30 of new gTLDs in volumes. At the moment I am reading the numbers, here is what I read :
- .CFD : 1,020,525 domain names.
- .SBS : 803,335
- .BOND : 554,071
- .ICU : 509,016
- .CYOU : 261,228
ShortDot SA has a total of 3,148,175 domain names created.

The .CEO new gTLD was acquired 6 months ago, let's check the numbers
Since this publication was automated 6 months ago, I encourage my readers to check the numbers directly here on nTLDstats.com.
Feed-back : not exactly 6 months but 2 weeks more (2 months and 2 weeks then), I returned to check the numbers in zonefile and that number is : 4,510 domain names so the total of domain names gained is 6 months (and 2 weeks) is 742.

March 2024 new gTLD Reports are online
On the last day of each month, we take a snapshot of these numbers so one can see if they increase or decrease for a month to the other.
This method is a good way to see if these domain names meet with adoption...or not.
22 new gTLD reports were just updated.
