As of Apr 27, 2026, this is the active domain pool ranked by TLD size. The numbers below come from today’s zone file snapshot covering 1105 TLDs, 244,605,086 active domains in total. Rankings reflect this single snapshot, not multi-day trends; for movement and direction, see the linked TLD report.
Top 10 TLDs by active domains: Apr 27, 2026
Across 244,605,086 active domains in the pool today, the top 10 TLDs alone account for 88.4%. Within that top 10, 4 legacy gTLDs (.com / .net / .org and similar) supply 88.3% of the rank’s volume. This is the structural inertia of the steady-state pool: head TLDs lead by years of accumulation, and the ranking shifts slowly even when inflow at the entrance is volatile.
