Cross-checkThe registry reported 13,540 domains under management for May 2026 — −540 against last night’s zone. Undelegated and on-hold names never reach the zone, so the two will not agree, and neither is wrong.

How we classify
A name takes the row its nameservers match on our provider list. Verification nameservers sit beside a name’s other nameservers, so they overlap the rows above: 0.2%. List 2026.09.7+psl4b673689.

Counted from the registry’s own zone file on the night of Oct 13, 2026. A zone count is not domains under management: a registered name that is not delegated never appears in the zone, and a name on hold leaves the zone while it stays registered. The two numbers will not agree, and neither is wrong.

Aug 2026: 12,887 — third-party estimate; the registry has not published that month yet.
