WebHosting.Info (www.webhosting.info), the largest research and statistics portal dedicated towards the web services industry, in collaboration with LogicBoxes (www.logicboxes.com) - a leading Registrar solutions provider; today announced that it has officially started publishing comprehensive statistical reports on the performance of all Domain Name Registrars worldwide.
WebHosting.Info’s Registrar reports provide an in-depth view of a registrar’s performance by presenting current as well as historical data on various attributes, such as:
* Total count of domain names
* Number of domains gained/lost
* TLD-wise breakdown of domains
* Which registrars are they gaining domains from
* Which registrars are they losing domains to
* Analysis of Domain Renewals and Newly registered domains
“With the introduction of domain registrar reports to our portfolio, we now move closer to our goal of creating a free market and fostering healthy competition” states Bhavin Turakhia, CEO of WebHosting.Info. “Our reports expose the entire domain registrar industry for anyone to view, inspect and analyze.”
In July 2004, WebHosting.Info released a technology preview of the registrar reports to over 150 ICANN-Accredited Registrars and several industry experts, to gather feedback on the accuracy of the statistics. The industry’s positive response to the preview expedited the public launch of the registrars section.
“Within a few months of our soft-launch, the registrar reports have gained tremendous interest in the industry” says Namit Merchant, Business Head of WebHosting.Info. “Almost the entire domain registrar community utilizes our reports to constantly track their own progress, closely monitor their competitors, gauge customer satisfaction levels, and to keep and eye on various other market changes”
The section also features the Fastest Growing Domain Registrars and Registrar Rankings, which establishes performance benchmarks amongst the players in the industry. WebHosting.Info also launched an email update service, which allows users to receive the Registrar reports directly in their mailbox. The registrars section can be directly accessed at http://www.webhosting.info/registrars/.
