# faq
- ? How many .sex domains are registered?
- There are 7,254 active .sex domains as of August 31, 2026, according to DNSniffer's daily count of zone-file and certificate-transparency records.
- ? Is .sex growing or shrinking?
- .sex has grown by 26.44% over the last year (+1,517 domains).
- ? Where does the .sex domain count come from?
- We ingest ICANN CZDS zone files and Certificate Transparency logs continuously and snapshot the per-TLD count once a day. A .sex domain is counted as active if it appeared in a zone file in the last 2 days, or — where no zone file is published — if a certificate was issued for it in the last 12 months.
