Another anniversary! .ORG Domain just reached 7,000,000 registrations maintaining its status as the third most popular international top level domain.

.ORG domain names have gained a certain cult status within non-profit organizations, political movements, green activists, open source programmers and other non-conformist people who don’t fit in the commercial frames of .COM. As the legislation changed, .ORG became available for everyone regardless of their activities. So now even some businesses have switched to .ORG.



The oldest .ORG domain name is themitre.org registered in July 1985.

.NET domain zone is theoretically within the reach with 11.7 million names but the growth rates of .ORG and .NET are similar.
