ICANN has published the latest official data from Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) about the .com namespace. This registrar-by-registrar report covers April 2019.
Dynadot jumped into the top ten last month and it managed to stay there again this month. Dynadot has stopped its $6.99 promotional price on .com, so it will be interesting to see what happens when the Verisign/ICANN reports catch up to September.
NameSilo nudged its way back into the top 10 this month.
Also notable on the monthly chart is that Web.com (Network Solutions, Register.com) fell out of the top 10.

1. GoDaddy.com* (NYSE: GDDY) 936,916 (970,751 in April)
