I’m very surprised #3 is .de
Edit: Wow, that’s even better than Valve:
> Verisign’s business model is straightforward: charge $10.26 per year wholesale for every .com domain registration and renewal. With 161 million registry registrations, that produces $1.657 billion in annual revenue. The company has 932 employees — generating $1.78 million in revenue per person — and an operating margin that ranks sixth in the S&P 500.
Edit 2: Wowzers, not even close. Valve has around $50 million revenue per employee. Jeez.

Dot com is king. I’m surprised .de is more popular than .org. One is a cctld and the other is used internationally (mostly) for organizations.

Crazy that there are nearly the same amount of .de domains as adults in Germany. So statistically every German has one domain?!?!

Can someone explain like I’m 5 – why, and what is the difference with these? Like I get some stand for countries but what’s the physical difference between a UK company using a .com site or a .uk site

For some reason it does not make sense to me. .net seems way too high compared to .com

Note that the numbers include subdomains (according to the article). [According to DENIC](https://www.denic.de/en/products/statistics-about-de/monthly-domain-statistics-of-de/), there are only 18 million .de domains.
