3. Zone Details: .autos

.autos is a generic top-level domain tailored to the automotive sector. It is commonly used by car dealerships, manufacturers, parts suppliers, repair shops, vehicle marketplaces, rental agencies and enthusiast communities to host product listings, service information, inventory search, classified ads and buyer guides.

The .autos extension conveys an immediate industry focus, helping sites establish clear branding and user recognition. Marketers and site owners use it to create memorable, keyword-rich domains that reflect inventory (for example make-model.autos), location-based services, specialty offerings like electric vehicles, or community resources for hobbyists and clubs.

Organizations typically choose .autos when they want concise, sector-specific names or when conventional extensions are not available. It is suitable for commercial and community projects, and complements mainstream domains; registrants should follow naming best practices—keep names short, descriptive, and aligned with target audiences and local markets.

Annual Registration Trends - Last 10 Years

Currently active domains grouped by creation year for the most recent decade.

AI Analysis
  • Long-term picture — slow start then explosive volume concentrated in 2025. From near-zero registrations in the late 2010s (single digits in 2017–2018) the set climbs through the tens and low hundreds in 2019–2021, reaches the low thousands by 2024, and is dominated by a single very large cohort in 2025 (on the order of hundreds of thousands). Overall the dataset is shaped more by that one year than by the prior multi-year growth trend.
  • Weird spike + partial rollback — 2025 is an outlier, 2026 is a partial unwind. There’s a dramatic surge in 2025 (roughly two orders of magnitude above 2024), followed by a drop in 2026 to the tens of thousands — about an order of magnitude lower than 2025 but still materially above pre-2024 levels. That pattern screams a bulk registration event (or a policy/market change) in 2025 with some retention into 2026 rather than steady organic growth.
  • What’s in it for you — treat the 2025 cohort as a special segment and watch renewals. Because these are domains active today, the 2025 bulge likely includes many names that simply haven’t reached their first expiry; monitor renewal and churn over the next 6–12 months, triage the 2025 batch for traffic/usage/WHOIS signals, and prioritize automated expiry/renewal tracking and anomaly alerts. Practically: expect a possible large cull when that cohort hits renewals (risk to aggregate active counts), and conversely a concentrated opportunity for monetization, acquisition, or defensive actions if a meaningful subset shows traffic or brand risk.

Monthly Registration Volume - Last 36 Months

Creation months of domains present in the analyzed snapshot, over the rolling three-year window. This is not a complete historical count of all registrations.

AI Analysis
  • Baseline was tiny and steady until mid‑2025. From 2023‑07 through 2025‑04 the dataset shows a low, stable flow — on the order of tens to low hundreds of active registrations per month, with nothing dramatic until May 2025. (Remember: these are only domains still active today, so older months represent long‑lived survivors.)
  • A dramatic regime change and huge spikes appear in mid‑ to late‑2025. Beginning in May 2025 the series jumps into the thousands and then into the tens of thousands, peaking in late 2025 at roughly the order of 10^4–10^5 active names (the largest month is on the order of seventy‑thousand). That makes late‑2025 an order of magnitude (or two) above the prior baseline.
  • There’s a quirky, sawtooth volatility around the big surge. May–Sep 2025 alternate between big surges (tens of thousands in some months) and much smaller months (low thousands), rather than a single smooth ramp — a pattern consistent with one or more bulk registration waves or cohorts with mixed lifetimes. After those peaks the series drops but settles into a new, higher baseline of a few thousand active names per month through mid‑2026 — still far above the pre‑2025 tens/hundreds level.
  • What’s in it for you. Treat the huge mid‑2025 cohorts as a potential expiry cliff and monitoring priority: if many of those bulk registrations were short‑term, expect concentrated churn around 12–18 months after each surge. Operationally, set alerts for expirations from the high‑volume months, triage registrar/nameserver concentration for abuse or reuse, and model capacity/cleanup around an elevated baseline of thousands/month instead of the old dozens.

Seasonality - Registrations by Month of Year

Creation-month distribution of domains present in the analyzed snapshot, aggregated across available years. Domains removed before the snapshot are not represented.

AI Analysis
  • Massively concentrated summer peak. June–September dominate the year: June (~60k), August (~65k) and September (~75k) together account for roughly 80% of the annual registrations (on the order of 10^5 for the three‑month window), leaving the rest of the year with only a few thousand registrations per month on average.
  • Low, flat baseline the other nine months. Excluding the big three months, the typical month is in the low single‑thousands to ~5k range (average ≈5k/month), with May being a modest bump (~15k) and most months clustered around ~4–6k.
  • Notable quirks — extreme skew and two micro‑troughs. November is the quietest month (~1.5k) and July is also unusually low (~2.2k) compared with the mid‑summer spike; the distribution is highly right‑skewed (a single seasonal window concentrates nearly all activity).
  • What’s in it for you. This concentration means operational, marketing and revenue risk is front‑loaded into a ~3‑month season: infrastructure and fraud detection should be scaled for tens of thousands of signups during summer, while marketing or product teams could either lean into the summer window or try to smooth demand (e.g., run promotions in off‑peak months like November/July to diversify intake and reduce seasonality risk).

Age Distribution of Active Domains

Distribution of currently active domains by age in years since registration.

AI Analysis
  • 1-year registrations dominate the active base. There are 211,508 active domains aged exactly 1 year — about 85.5% of the entire active pool (total active domains = 247,340). This is an extreme single-cohort concentration: order of magnitude = hundreds of thousands sitting in one age bucket.
  • Newcomers (<1 year) are the clear second slice. Domains registered less than one year number 32,475, roughly 13.1% of the total. Combined, the <1y and 1y cohorts account for 243,983 domains — about 98.6% of all active domains, so almost everything is either brand-new or right at the one-year mark.
  • Long-lived domains are vanishingly rare and the tail is lumpy. Ages 2–10 years sum to 3,357 domains (≈1.4% of the pool). The older buckets are tiny and uneven — e.g., 8y: 2, 9y: 3, 10y: 46 — a quirky spike pattern rather than a smooth long-tail.
  • What's in it for you: This dataset screams churn and renewal strategy. With ~2×10^5 one-year domains and ~3×10^4 newcomers, the biggest wins are retention and converting one-year holders to multi-year customers; treat the <1y segment as acquisition upside and monitor the tiny long-lived cohort for anomalies or high-value legacy names.

Registration Lifespan

Time between recorded creation and expiration dates in the analyzed snapshot. Renewals can extend expiration dates; this is not a measure of a domain's final lifetime or evidence of malicious intent.

AI Analysis
  • One-year registrations dominate — roughly three quarters of the sample. About 1.8×10^5 of the ~2.5×10^5 domains are single‑year registrations, so the dataset is overwhelmingly short-term. That points to a strong preference for ephemeral or trial/marketing usage rather than long-term brand lock‑in.
  • Two-year is the clear distant runner-up; everything else is negligible. The ~6×10^4 two‑year registrations make up most of the remainder, so 1‑ and 2‑year terms together account for roughly 99% of the distribution. Commitments of 3+ years are vanishingly rare (on the order of 10^2–10^3 combined).
  • Small, odd bumps and near‑ties suggest packaging or data quirks. Four‑ and five‑year counts are nearly identical (~6×10^2 each), 8‑ and 10‑year buckets show modest counts (10^1–10^2), while the 9‑year bucket is essentially empty (just a handful). That non‑monotonic pattern smells like registrar default options, promotional bundles, or a registry/ingestion quirk rather than organic multi‑year brand planning.
  • What's in it for you — tactical takeaways. The market you’re looking at is driven by short cycles: prioritize short‑term conversion funnels, retention nudges at year‑end, and attractive multi‑year discounts to convert that large 1‑year pool into longer revenue streams. Also audit registrar/ingestion defaults (and the 9‑year oddity) — cleaning or capitalizing on those quirks could yield outsized gains given how concentrated the distribution is.

Expiration Forecast - Next 18 Months

Recorded expiration dates grouped by month for the next 18 months. Domains may be renewed or otherwise change status; these counts do not predict deletions or availability for registration.

AI Analysis
  • Two blockbuster expiry peaks dominate the 18‑month horizon: The forecast shows two very large concentration windows — Aug–Sep 2026 and May–Jun 2027 — each on the order of tens of thousands of expirations, far larger than any other months in the period.
  • Between the peaks there's a modest baseline of expiries: Most months from Oct 2026 through Apr 2027 sit in the single‑ to mid‑thousands range, with May 2027 rising into the low ten‑thousands just ahead of the big June spike.
  • There's a sharp 'data cliff' immediately after June 2027: Expiries drop from tens of thousands in June 2027 to a few hundred in July 2027 and then to mere tens or single digits for the remainder of the window — a classic sign that renewals beyond that date haven't been recorded (or the forecast was truncated).
  • What's in it for you: Treat Aug–Sep 2026 and May–Jun 2027 as your capacity and activity hotspots (backorders, auctions, support staffing, monitoring). Immediately validate data completeness for post‑June 2027 — if it's a truncation, adjust forecasts; if it's real, it's a strategic signal that renewals largely stop beyond that horizon and you can deprioritize long‑horizon provisioning.

Domain Name Statistics

Avg Name Length

characters
All-Digit Names
1,842

Hyphenated Names
3,321
contain a hyphen
AI Analysis
  • Huge concentration at 7 characters — this zone is heavily skewed. Roughly half the zone (~122k domains, ≈49% of the registry) are exactly 7 characters long, and when you add 8‑character names (~52k, ≈21%) the two lengths together make up roughly 70% of the whole zone. The stated average length of 8 masks a sharp modal clustering at 7 — this is a very concentrated length profile, not a smooth bell curve.
  • Hyphens and numeric-only names are rare — no zone‑specific hyphen signal. Hyphenated names are only ~1.3% of the zone (≈3.3k names) and all‑digit names are ≈0.74% (≈1.8k names). Both are well below the 12–15% threshold that typically signals a zone quirk (like .FR), so there’s nothing odd there — this zone is not hyphen‑heavy or digit‑heavy.
  • Short‑name saturation is low — lots of short combos remain available. Only ~1.7k 3‑char names are registered (≈3.5% of the ~48k theoretical 3‑char space) and ~2.4k 4‑char names (≈0.14% of the ~1.7M 4‑char space). There are ~14.7k 5‑char names (≈6% of the zone), but against ~65M theoretical 5‑char combinations that’s essentially nil. In short: 3–5 char names are far from exhausted.
  • Long tail and distribution shape — mean ≠ median story, plus tiny outliers. About 15% of domains are 6 characters or fewer (~37k names), while many lengths from 10–30 appear in the thousands down to single digits; there are a sprinkling of very long names (40–57 chars) but only a handful each. The dataset’s long tail nudges the mean to 8 even though the modal mass sits at 7 — classic skewed distribution behavior.
  • What’s in it for you. If you’re hunting for short inventory, the takeaway is positive: plenty of 3–5 char opportunity remains (orders of magnitude available). If you’re a marketplace or investor, expect 7‑char names to be the most crowded and likely the most contested — productize discovery/valuation around that length. If you operate the registry or run policy, the 7‑char dominance suggests automated/templated registrations or a popular naming convention; consider checking onboarding flows or marketing channels that might be driving that concentration.

DNS Update Recency

How recently were .AUTOS domains last updated in DNS? Combines a detailed breakdown and a three-tier active/aging/stale summary.

AI Analysis
  • Distribution snapshot — the zone is dominated by 'aging' updates. Grouping the buckets into three tiers (active = updates within 6 months; aging = 6–12 months; stale = >1 year) shows about ~1e5 domains are active (≈40% of the total), ~1.5e5 domains are aging (≈60%), and only a few hundred are stale (≪1%). Total population is on the order of a few 10^5 domains, so the dataset is overwhelmingly concentrated in the middle age band.
  • Single-month breakdown reveals a striking concentration at 6–12 months. The 6–12 month bucket is the largest single slice (~150k domains, roughly 60%), while the neighboring buckets are much smaller: ≤1 month is about 64k (~25%), 1–3 months ~20k (~8%), and 3–6 months ~14k (~5–6%). That sharp hump in the 6–12 month window looks like a coordinated or scheduled refresh/maintenance pattern rather than smooth continuous churn.
  • Recent freshness is decent but not dominant; long-term staleness is negligible. Approximately a quarter of domains were updated within the last month, so real-time-dependent use cases have a nontrivial fraction that’s fresh. Conversely, true long-term stale zones (>1 year) are tiny — only a few hundred records — indicating good overall hygiene or lifecycle enforcement.
  • What’s in it for you — pragmatic next steps. Prioritize monitoring and revalidation around the large 6–12 month cohort (that’s where most change is concentrated) and treat the ≤1 month group as your high-confidence live set for low-latency services. For sampling, expect to hit most recent-change activity by checking on the order of 10^5 domains monthly; investigate automated or policy-driven processes that could be creating the 6–12 month spike. If you need to reduce noise, focus remediation on the ~10^2 stale entries and tune check cadence: weekly for the ≤1 month group, monthly for 1–6 months, and quarterly for the 6–12 month cohort.

Registrar Analytics

Which registrars hold .AUTOS domains, and how concentrated is market share?

Distinct Registrars
103
active in this zone
Rank Registrar Domains Share
AI Analysis
  • Massive single-player dominance. The top registrar, GMO Internet Group / Onamae.com, controls roughly ~74% of the dataset’s domains (on the order of 10^5 names vs tens of thousands for the next competitors). The full top table sums to about 2.5×10^5 domains across 103 registrars in the dataset — so this is essentially a one-registrar market by volume.
  • Extreme concentration at the top. The top 2 registrars capture roughly ~82% of names and the top 5 capture roughly ~94%, leaving the remaining ~100 registrars to split a sliver (the labeled "The Rest" is only on the order of 10^3–10^4 names). This is a very steep Pareto: the tail exists, but it contributes almost nothing to overall volume.
  • Clear mid-tier and surprising smallness of some global brands. Second place (NameCheap) sits an order of magnitude below the leader (on the order of 10^4 names), with Porkbun and Spaceship each also around ~10^4. Established global names like GoDaddy and Alibaba (HiChina) appear far down the list here (each under a few thousand domains in this dataset) — an interesting mismatch vs. general market expectations.
  • What’s in it for you. If you care about risk, routing, or commercial leverage: the dependence on one dominant registrar is a structural risk and a bargaining lever. For operational planning, assume that any changes at the top player would affect the vast majority of names (order-of-magnitude impact). Tactical uses: monitor the Onamae account closely, consider diversification if you control many names (think tens of thousands), and if you’re a smaller registrar or reseller there’s opportunity in niche services because volume is concentrated and incumbent switching frictions could create gaps to exploit.

Coverage and methodology for .AUTOS data

The downloadable file contains domain names from available sources, one per line in gzip-compressed plain text. It is a domain list, not a raw DNS zone file containing resource records, a WHOIS export, or a verified list of active websites.

Complete zone-file coverage. The .AUTOS domain list covers every domain name present in the complete zone-file snapshot. Registered domains absent from the zone file are not included, and presence in the zone does not confirm a working website.

Additions and removals describe observed changes between dataset observations, not confirmed registrations or expirations; source changes and gaps can also affect counts. The coverage label describes the current dataset and does not establish comparable coverage across historical snapshots. Verify registration status separately before outreach, security decisions, or domain purchases.

The daily update target is 9 AM UTC. Use each file's snapshot date when scheduling imports or comparing archives; delivery can be affected by source delays. Historical availability varies by zone and date.

Registration and registrar analytics use a separate snapshot dated . These breakdowns reflect records available in that snapshot and may differ from the latest downloadable list. "Active" here describes inclusion in the analyzed domain data, not a confirmed working website. Creation-date charts omit domains no longer in that snapshot; expiration dates can change through renewal.

For reproducible analysis, record the zone, snapshot date, downloaded filename, and filtering rules. Usage is subject to our dataset license; enterprise and redistribution licensing is available separately.
