What the! 137million?
And you can still reg new domains...

I'm not so sure I would "trust" these numbers....

Several registrars use the same DNS for parking and hosting. A "parked" domain can be used as a forward, email etc.

I think there is no way to get an accurate number on how many domains are "parked" no matter what TLD. :tu:

I would think the number is huge, yet I still dont know a good way to actually get an accurate count.

If you really want to know how many domains are currently parked there is a group monitoring it by crawling the web and keeping stats they are;

Parked Domains Project by I've Got a Fang

According to them the list is at 47million but they do not monitor the ccTld's so far....
