EURid released its Q2 2020 Progress Report today, sharing its quarterly statistics and developments. Highlights include:

  • 163 277 new domain name registrations recorded;
  • Slovenia tops the list of countries for registration growth at +4.8%;
  • The average renewal rate was 83.9%

Total registrations decreased from 3 623 050 at the end of Q1 2020 to 3 606 143 at the end of Q2 2020. This can be attributed to a higher rate of deletions among UK-based registrations in light of the .eu registrations update relating to Brexit.

Main developments throughout the quarter included:

  • Kick-off of the 7th annual .eu Web Awards competition;
  • Partnership with the Coordination Center for TLD .RU/.РФ for the annual EURid UNESCO World Report on IDNs;
  • Strengthening our collaboration with the EUIPO and Ecommerce Foundation to benefit SMEs and .eu online stores;
  • Brexit update regarding .eu domain names registered to individuals and undertakings residing in the United Kingdom and Gibraltar: the Withdrawal Agreement between the UK and EU provides a transition period until 31 December 2020; as of 1 January 2021, 00:00:00 CET , EURid will no longer allow the registration of any new domain names by UK registrants.
  • Supporting the ‘Water is Life’ project in Madagascar to offset our 2019 CO2 emissions.
