Provide current and historical ownership information on domains / IPs. Identify all connections between domains, registrants, registrars, and DNS servers.
WhoisXML API analyzed 10.2+ million domains registered between 1 and 30 April 2026 that appeared in Newly Registered Domains to identify the most popular registrars, TLD extensions, and other global domain registration trends. This number rose by 14.1% from 8.9+ million NRDs last month.
We also determined the top TLD extensions used by 2.7+ million domains likely registered with malicious intent from the First Watch Malicious Domains Data Feed in April 2026. This number rose by 30.8% from the previous month.
Next, we studied the top TLD extensions of 1.11+ million confirmed malicious domains from the Threat Intelligence Data Feeds this month, which decreased by 2.0% from 1.13+ million in March.
Finally, we summed up our findings and provided links to the threat reports produced using DNS and domain intelligence sources during the period.
