statistics
This profile looks at statistics regarding the dot-nz
space.
It covers -
introduction
As with Australia, normalisation of the web and the
introduction of competition in the provision of domain
name registration services (with associated lower prices)
resulted in significant growth of some 2LDs
As with other jurisdictions, there is disagreement about
the number of active and unique names in the dot-nz space.
One claim is that at August 2002 there were around 113,781
active domains - a figure that probably conflates dot-nz
and gTLD domains (eg dot-coms and dot-orgs) in New Zealand.
State of the Domain (SotD)
and Domains Worldwide claimed in October 2002 that the
.co 2LD had 132,264 names. The Domain Name Commissioner
suggested that there were 98,992 active names in that
2LD and it is likely that the SotD figure covers all historic
registrations in the dot-nz space, active and otherwise.
The New Zealand government claimed
that there were 60,966 dot-nz sites as of March 2001,
of which 52,693 (86%) had been established by commercial
entities.
