Here are the biggest and fastest-growing domain name registrars for .com domains.

ICANN has published the latest official data from Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) about the .com namespace. This registrar-by-registrar report covers February 2023.

CentralNic had a strong month for new registrations after receiving an larger-than-normal performance from its Key-Systems brand.

Here’s how registrars did in terms of new .com registrations in February:

1. GoDaddy.com* (NYSE: GDDY) 763,837 (779,935 in January 2023)
