Hi can anyone tell me where i could find who has the market share for .ie domains names in Ireland.

So what hosts have what percentage opf the market, or just how many .ie registered and i can work out the ahre myself?/

Thanks

Tammy

I think you want to look at WhoisIreland.com Irish Domains Search Engine and Irish Website Directory : Ireland's Search Engine

The data isn't public.

The top 5 would probably be:

Hosting365
Blacknight
Novara
Letshost
IrishDomains

The exact order of that list is not 100% certain, unless you are privy to the IEDR's data

I know the data would not be public, but how could it be obtained? Plus thought top 5 would br

Hosting365
Digiweb
Blacknight
Letshost
IrishDomains

Im looking for raw data on just .ie market share nothing else, there must be someone who can give me this information?

maybe you can pay for the report Domain and Hoster Statistics From WhoisIreland get in touch with JMCC

Ok i understand, can you tell me if the report that he does, gives you a breakdown of the marketshare in Ireland for .ie domains e.g

Hosting365 6589 .ie domains
Digiweb.ie 4376 .ie domains

Does the report do that? And would anyone have a copy of the report for the month of April that l could view to see what the reports look like?

Thanks guys

Working it out is a lot more complicated than it looks. The current number of .ie domains is 103241.


They would be ordered as follows:
(combined Irish market = com/net/org/biz/info/ie)

Hosting365.ie: 16.37% combined.
Blacknightsolutions.com: 8.81% combined.
Novara.ie: 6.36% combined.
Irishdomains.net: 4.72% combined.
Eircom.net: 4.52% combined.
Letshost.ie: 5.8% combined.
Webhostingireland.ie: 3.5% combined.
Digiweb.ie: 4.1% combined.
Hostireland.com: 2.85% combined.
Webhost.ie: 2.44% combined.

It is more complicated because these hosters often host across different nameservers. Digiweb and Novara still have not merged completely in statistical terms. Hosters can sometimes claim nameservers on their IP ranges in cumulative market share. The main growth each month is limited to a few top hosters (Hosting365, Blacknight, Letshost, Digiweb/Novara). The ISPs are treading water with their historical marketshares but are not exhibiting any serious growth.

The figures above are from 01/May/2008. The number of registered .ie domains at that time was 101156. Every hoster (currently 1072272 distinct hosters) in com/net/org/biz/info/ie/mobi/asia is tracked here. The databases also track approximately 2.61M .eu domains and 3.92M .co.uk domains. The stats are produced monthly. The Irish market report is a 26 spreadsheet report and as such it would be a bit difficult to post here.

Those figures are quite old.

This a post I put on the blog which provides the figures from 2007:
Top Irish Web Hosters - June 2007 - WhoisIreland Review

I may get around to posting some recent figures later today. I've been a bit busy putting together a database of all com/net/org/biz/info etc domain registrations/deletions/movements since 2000 along with the statistical record of every hoster since 2000.

That would be grounds for termination. Why not ask me directly?

Regards...jmcc

I think the OP likes to be vague.

Why don't they declare their interest?
