2020 was a year of accelerated digitisation. This trend is also reflected in the growth of do-mains registered under the German country code .de. In 2020, the number of .de domains reg-istered in the cities and districts of Germany increased by nearly a quarter of a million. Every year, the precise geographic distribution of .de domains is mapped in the annual regional do-main statistics published by DENIC. The registry managing all domains with the ending .de now presents the results of 2020.
As of 31 December 2020, 15.2 million .de domains were registered in the 401 cities and districts of Germany. Adding to these numbers were more than 1.5 million domains of holders whose place of residence was abroad. In total, more than 16.7 million .de domains were registered at the end of 2020. Domain development in general was very positive, with growth being more pronounced in the south than in the north of Germany. The west-east divide in the distribution of domains across Germany increased slightly.
