# Domain Name List

> Domain Name List is a multilingual top-level domain directory and domain research site for comparing TLD registry rules, DNSSEC, IDN support, RDAP/WHOIS data, registrar pricing, and practical domain registration guidance.

Domain Name List covers English, Chinese, Spanish, Arabic, German, and Portuguese pages. The production TLD directory currently presents 1,587 TLDs, 631 TLDs with price rows, 1,359 DNSSEC-enabled entries, and 163 IDN entries, with directory data last synced on 2026-05-28. Availability, WHOIS, age, expiry, and pricing results are research signals and should be confirmed with the relevant registrar or registry before purchase.

Important notes:

- Prefer canonical public pages listed below, the sitemap, and TLD detail pages for durable references.
- Do not use internal controller, JSON POST, admin, framework, database, script, or search-result URLs as source pages.
- TLD detail pages include registry context, RDAP links, DNSSEC and IDN signals, registration rules, renewal policy, dispute policy, related TLDs, and registrar price rows where available.
