Top fresh TLD sales at Donuts
A look at which fresh top level domains are selling.
Donuts published its Domain Trend Note for September this stretch. The firm doesn’t disclose sale prices but its lists are still helpful to understand what’s selling and trending in fresh top level domains.
The top five premium domain name registrations (by price) last month were:
value.market
land.lease
brief.news
digital.family
acupuncture.clinic
Four of these seem like natural left-right combinations. Brief.news is backward, although it could be used for a site that has concise news bits.
Two single letter registrations — i.management and o.solutions — were also among the top 20.
It’s also interesting to see which words are most commonly being registered as second level domains in Donuts’ 200+ top level domains:
online
life
your
digital
home
tech
health
free
media
world
You’ll notice that most of these are also top level domain names. Registries chose many of the TLDs they applied for based on usage as second level domains, which shows that people register similar keywords in .com vs. fresh TLDs.
