    The Namespace You Plan - and the One That Takes Shape (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The 2026 new gTLD application window has closed. Hundreds of applicants have submitted business plans describing the namespaces they intend to build. Those plans include target audiences, pricing strategies, registrar partnerships, launch sequences, and marketing approaches. Most describe what the namespace should look like once it reaches maturity. No business plan can fully determine the composition that will emerge. That is not a criticism of the applicants or their planning. It is an observa

    Beyond DUMs: The Case for Tracking What a Namespace Is Made Of (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Domains Under Management is the default health metric for the domain industry. It is simple, comparable, and universally understood. It gives boards a growth number, analysts a ranking, and registries a headline they can defend in a quarterly review. DUMs earned that position for good reason.

The finding was that namespaces with similar registration volumes could have materially different compositions underneath. Since publishing that analysis,

    What Zone File Analysis Reveals About the Gap Between nTLD Registration Volume and Namespace Reality (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Registration volume remains the default scorecard for new gTLD success. A namespace with several million registrations looks healthier than one with a few hundred thousand. Industry reports rank TLDs by it. Boards track it. Marketing teams celebrate milestones around it. But registration volume is a single number. It compresses fundamentally different populations—genuine business adoption, speculative holds, defensive registrations, and structural noise—into one headline figure. And it does so e
