Which domain extension are you currently investing in the most?

Also, do you typically use the custom provided by marketplaces like Sedo, Afternic, Atom, or Spaceship, or do you prefer connecting your domains using (TXT records with default nameserver?)

You're absolutely right—.ai and .xyz have been making waves lately, especially with the surge in tech startups and AI-driven platforms. Here's a snapshot of the top 10 best-selling TLDs (Top-Level Domains) in 2025 based on registration trends and market demand:

📈 Notable Trends

  • .ai surged by nearly 8% in recent months, reflecting the global AI boom.
  • .xyz remains a favorite among Web3 and blockchain communities for its flexibility and modern vibe.
  • .store and .shop are climbing thanks to the rise in direct-to-consumer brands and online retail.
  • Creative TLDs like .art, .studio, and .design are gaining traction with niche audiences.

    I have recently considered some other TLDs as not finding much in .coms, though I need to be selling not buying. I've tried to stay strictly with .coms but recently my provider has forced LOL. They had a sale where I got the .com .info and .online for $8. I managed to sell MOST of the alternative ones off at 1.5 per, making my .com costs me $5. At the time .coms werent on sale an they were 10 and even my math knows $8 is better than 10 on the out going section.
