ICANN has published the latest official data from Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) about the .com namespace. This registrar-by-registrar report covers January 2022.
Registrations slowed in Q1, and we should see this reflected in the top registrar reports. New .com registrations in January this year were 3,211,986, down from 3,414,733 last year.
