As you all know - I have an interest in following the growth of
dot.com. I used to get the dot.com data from third particies since my
main interest is in the numbers and not the area of speculation. So I now
pick up the files myself and have been developing a tracking system for
dot.com. At this time I'm experimenting with the dot.com file for Sep 18
and Sep 19, 2000 and have some interesting comparisons for domain sales
and cancelations for Sep 19 2000, which i've listed below. The top ten
registrars for that day have been listed first in order of sales volumn.
I don't have enough data yet to make any predictions. But I speculate,
based on this data dump and other I've done over the month, that network
solutions is in some degree of difficulty. Most of the time their
accounts recievable and due (being cancellations) exceeds daily
sales. This is not a good thing and if netsol does not improve it's
position and this sort of thing continues their financial viability is in
question. I can also speculate that their are a few registrars out there
who are on the way to bankruptcy.
