Spam-fighting organization KnujOn released it’s annual report on the top-ten domain name registrars sponsoring spam. As noted in the Washington Post:
Nearly 83 percent of all Web sites advertised through spam can be traced back to just 10 domain name registrars.
Those ten domain name registrars, according to KnujOn, are:
- XinNet Cyber Information Company Limited
- eNom
- Network Solutions
- Register.com
- Planet Online
- Regtime Ltd.
- OnlineNIC Inc.
- Spot Domain LLC
- Wild West Domains
- Hichina Web Solutions
LegitScript is particularly interested in this, because an 80% or 90% of spam tends to hawk pharmaceutical products.
