In August 2025, a significant milestone in the adoption of Nigeria’s digital identity was recorded, with a remarkable surge in sectorial domain registrations. For this month’s .ng domain report, we spotlight the numbers recorded for the different .ng domain extensions.
The report indicates that sectorial domain registrations reached a high of 5,762, and domain renewals reached 4,014, marking a total of 9,740. These numbers show a strong expression of confidence and growth within the .ng domain ecosystem. This figure represents a robust increase, demonstrating the widespread adoption of specific domains across various sectors.
The data signifies that organizations and individuals are increasingly leveraging targeted .ng domains to establish a clear and trusted online presence. This is particularly evident in the following SLDs:
- .com.ng: Signifying growth in commercial and business ventures.
- .edu.ng: Reflecting the expansion of educational institutions online.
- .net.ng: Highlighting the development of network and infrastructure services.

This high volume of registrations across such diverse sectors confirms the value and relevance of the .ng domains as a trusted and secure digital platform. These statistics underscore a collective move towards a more organized and sector-specific online identity within the Nigerian digital space.
We look forward to a continued trend of growth and innovation in the coming months.
