Nominet Revenue and Competitors

Nominet manages and runs the infrastructure for over 10 million domain names that end in .uk as well as Welsh Top Level Domains (TLDs) .cymru and .wales and 35 other branded and generic TLDs, including .bbc and .london. Over 3 million businesses, and millions more consumers, rely on its domain registry services. Through its work keeping the .UK namespace secure, Nominet's R&D team is exploring the further potential of the Domain Names System (DNS) and the challenges and opportunities around emerging internet technologies. As a result, it operates in a number of business areas, from providing internet connectivity and analytics for Internet of Things (IoT) devices to selling DNS cyber security services using its ground-breaking network analytics tool turing and in-house expertise for tackling cyber threats. Nominet is also working with the UK government to protect its Public Service Network, in partnership with the National Cyber Security Centre. And, Nominet is a member of the DRIVEN consortium, exploring the provision of trusted and secure data exchange for real-time transactions, including a framework for security and privacy, vital to future development of autonomous vehicles. With the proceeds of its successful registry business, Nominet set up and supports the charitable foundation Nominet Trust, the UK's leading social tech funder.
