I was reviewing a number of domain name registrars recently to get a feel for who is growing/declining and while I always knew GoDaddy was the largest by a country mile, can anyone actually catch up and be a real competitor to them?

The below is the Top 50 as of today by domain name registrations, GoDaddy has 13.10% Marketshare, so while being the largest shows clearly its a very fragmented market and of course, there are subsidiary registrars many of the entities own below which could be missing from their total number, GoDaddy is a good example as you see in this list you also have GoDaddy Online Services Cayman Islands Ltd & Wild West Domains, LLC both are owned by GoDaddy thus actually means their share grows by another 0.70% alone from the Top 50 domain name registrars listed below.

NameCheap.com sits in number two and has seen some solid growth over the past few years, I recently wrote about one portfolio they landed alone this year that had 100,000+ Domains, you can read that articles here, however, they are still 11% behind GoDaddy or to put that in domain name terms they are 58,092,192 domain names smaller than GoDaddy… That’s a lot of registrations they need to come up with to close the gap…

So my question really is can anyone catch up with GoDaddy? I also understand there are other companies such as NewFold Digital who own Web.com, Register.com, Network Solutions, etc so putting them together as a collective would take a nice share collectively but even they are miles away…

How Does GoDaddy Do It? Well IMO – A lot of Marketing and By Offering – The Cheapest Dot Com Registrations – $4.99* .COM Domains! Get going with GoDaddy!
