Radix,
one of the world’s largest new TLD
portfolio registries, announced that
it grossed $16.95 million in
total revenue in 2018, a 30%
rise over its revenue in 2017. The
registry’s net profit
soared too, growing 45.6% in comparison
to last year. They also ended the
year on a high note with Q4 2018 as
their strongest quarter.
In
breaking down their main sources of
revenue, Radix noted 27% came
from standard registrations and 60%
from standard renewals.
Radix’s premium domains accounted
for the rest, generating $1.9
million with 56% of that money
attributed to premium
renewals.
A
breakdown of revenue by geographic
location showed the United States
as the top contributor to Radix’s
revenue, generating 48% of
the total share, followed by Germany
with 12%, and China
with 6%.
The
company's renewal revenue
grew by 43% last year
compared to 2017, something CEO Sandeep
Ramdchandani said was
"indicative of Radix’s focus
on maintaining a strong renewal rate
through expansive end-customer
marketing for its TLDs."
