Porkbun.com, one of the fastest-growing domain name registrars in the world, today announced it now manages over 4 million domain names. The milestone continues at a pace that keeps quickening: after taking seven years to reach its first million domains, Porkbun added its second million in two years, its third in roughly 15 months, and its fourth in under a year.

Porkbun’s growth reflects genuine end-consumer adoption via its direct to consumer retail strategy, as opposed to large-scale domain portfolios or other wholesale volume plays. The 4 million domains are held across approximately 750,000 active domain customers, which averages to about 5 domains each. This profile distinguishes Porkbun from registrars whose numbers are concentrated among a small number of high-volume domain investors. Porkbun’s customers are largely developers, small businesses, and individuals building real websites, backed by attach rates for paid hosting and email that point to domains put to use rather than parked.

The milestone follows continued third-party recognition. Porkbun remains the #1 ranked registrar in 2025 and 2026 by Forbes Advisor, the expert-review platform within the Forbes ecosystem, and continues to hold the #1 registrar ranking from USA Today since it launched its editorial ranking in 2023. Porkbun also holds the highest Trustpilot rating of any of the world’s largest domain registrars, scoring 4.8 across more than 25,000 customer reviews.

“Every million comes faster than the last, and that’s because our customers keep telling their friends,” said Raymond King, CEO of Porkbun.com. “We celebrate each million not because it’s a big number, but because it’s real: developers and small businesses actually using their domains. The team executes well and we’re having a lot of fun growing a techy darling into a mainstream brand.”

“Porkbun’s rapid growth to 4 million domains is impressive,” adds Bruno Panara, of Google Registry. “Their platform clearly resonates with a highly technical community, driving significant adoption of .app and .dev domains. We are proud to support their continued success at this milestone.”

Porkbun has continued to expand its platform alongside its core registration business, which pairs at-cost pricing on top-level domains like .com, .org, .dev, .app, .ca, and hundreds of others with optional web hosting, email hosting, and free SSL certificates. Their Cloud for WordPress hosting now includes an AI site builder and continues to be backed by WP Cloud.

Since its founding, Porkbun.com has committed itself to transparency and supporting its community of users. The company plans to keep expanding its services and platform to meet the evolving needs of its growing customer base.
