Domain name registrar Namecheap generated $149 million in revenue in 2019, up 18.7% from its 2018 total.

The firm focused on higher-quality domain names in 2019, eschewing the sub-dollar domains it pushed in prior years. As a result, its domains under management remained fairly steady at 10.5 million. It added 1.24 million registrations during the year.

In September, the firm hit 5 million .com domains under management.

In a statement, the firm stated:

During the year, Namecheap welcomed over 675,000 fresh clients onto our platform, and continued to see our product mix expand with the addition of our Logo Maker, Business Card Maker, Validation and CDN products launching into market. Our other product verticals, such as Hosting and Private Email continue to outpace our strong domain business trajectory, contributing more and more to our overall financial performance.

Namecheap is privately held.
