On
March 1, 2023 US
domain registrations hit the highest level we have seen
since we started tracking the numbers in July 2021 (ADN.US
was launched on July 4, 2021). After 34,197 .US
domains were added in February 2023, total registrations in
America's official Top Level Domain (TLD) reached 1,915,300.
That
number represents a 7.3% increase in .US registration
from the same date one year ago. That is far higher than the
annual growth rate for all country code TLDs worldwide which
was 4.5% according to Verisign's most recent Domain
Name Industry Brief published in December
2022.

The
34,197 domains added in February 2023 is the third
highest single month total we have seen in the 21
months we have been following the data. The highest
one-month total was 38,264 in July 2022, followed
closely by the 37,725 added in March 2022. There are
almost 1,600 TLDs on the Internet today. With over
1.9 million domains registered, .US ranks among the top
2% of all TLDs worldwide, yet it is still one of
the most affordable options - for both new
registrations and premium aftermarket purchases - that any
enterprise, organization or individual in search of a
meaningful domain name will find.
