Domain zone file processors under-reporting .Boston numbers

Dot .Boston

There seems to be a large gap between the reported numbers for dot .Boston, and the actual number of domain registrations.

As we reported yesterday, dot .Boston had a nice first day with more than 2,000 registered .Boston domains.

These numbers came directly from the .Boston Registry, MMX.

However, domain-tallying web sites, ntldstats and namestat, reported much lower numbers yesterday, with ntldstats reporting  1,000+ less than the real numbers today; namestat is reporting about 500 less. Currently, ntldstats is offline, but it could be a coincidence.

As of 3 hours ago, MMX reported that dot .Boston has reached 2,600 domains.

And that’s rather wicked good, for a brand new city gTLD.
