About This Data

How many .NAME domains are currently expired?

We are tracking 1,152 expired .NAME domains across different lifecycle stages: expired, redemption, and pending delete. These numbers are derived from publicly available data and may differ from the registries' official counts.

What do the lifecycle stages mean?

When a domain expires, it typically goes through three stages. First it enters "expired" status where the registrant can still renew. Then it moves to "redemption" where recovery requires a fee. Finally it reaches "pending delete" and will be released for new registration within days.

Are there premium .NAME domains with higher renewal costs?

Yes. Many newer gTLDs including .NAME have a category called "registry premium" domains. These are short, dictionary-word, or high-value labels that the registry prices significantly above the standard rate. While you may acquire such a domain at a regular registration or backorder price, the annual renewal fee can be 10x to 100x higher than a standard domain. Always check the renewal price with your registrar before committing to a premium-tier domain.

Is this data accurate?

The statistics are based on publicly available WHOIS and zone file data. They provide a useful approximation but may not match exact registry numbers. For the most current status of a specific domain, check the registrar directly.
