As many DotWeekly readers have seen, I do several posts about "Off the wall domain stats". They normally show stats that people do not see everyday like how many domains moved from one parking service to another. I also talk about how many domains are with certain registrars etc.

Well today I wanted to do something a little different. (If you couldn’t tell, I like Numbers) :)

Domain Name Listings! The following are totals of domain names that are listed with some of the most popular domain services. All stats are from today 6-19-2008 and taken from the respected sites.

SnapNames.com has 1,300,285 domain names listed. This contains "In Auction" and "Available Soon" domains. 

NameJet.com has 257,287 Pre-Release listed domain names and 139 Public Auctions currently going on.

Pool.com has 9,203 domains listed for sale all in auction format.

TDNAM.com has 203,544 Expired domain auctions going, with 74,453 other auction which they consider "Fire Sale" domains. That totals to 277,997 domain names.

Today’s Pending Delete domain names total up, 57,668.

Sedo.com claims to have Over 11.5 Million domain names listed for sale.

Afternic.com claims to have Over 2 million "Premium" domain names for sale.

Bido.com has 7 domain names listed.

eBay.com shows 2,434 for the search term "domain name".

The next section will show who’s Home Page shows they are the "Leading" or "Premier" places or services! LOL These are all direct Quotes from the listed sites. I mean really, how many Leaders can one industry have?

SnapNames.com "the world’s leading source of domain names, and market of choice for top domain professionals."

NameJet.com "NameJet is the premiere, aftermarket domain name service with exclusive inventory of some of the most desired expired domains."

Sedo.com "Sedo is the leading marketplace for buying and selling domain names and websites"

Afternic.com "List your domains with the industry’s leading marketplace and distribution network:"

Bido.com "Bido is the premier site for live domain auctions and domain name portfolio management"

eNom.com "Since 1997, the premier reseller registrar."

Dotster.com "Today, Dotster is proud to be a worldwide leader in Domain Registration, Web Hosting and online advertising"

MyDomain.com "Founded in 1998, MyDomain.com is a leading domain registration service and provider of self-service domain management tools."

DirectNic.com "We are an industry leader, offering affordably priced domain names backed by high quality customer service and support."

I could keep going on but I’m sure you are as tired as I am. :)

    Those sales-listing stats explain why it is so easy for my domains to get lost in the crowd! I feel like I might need to hire a publicist to promote my listings…

    I hear you Kelly! If the crap was weeded out, there might be 10% TOTAL of what there is now. I think companies like Afternic.com & Sedo.com really need to start “approving” or accepting domains instead of taking whatever comes their way!
