ICANN Performance You Can Measure

by Carole Cornell on October 7, 2010

Transparent, open and accountable.

Our bylaws call for it. The community has asked for it. We are committed to it.

As a nonprofit corporation working for the public good, we must be able to openly and easily provide answers to questions such as:

  • What is ICANN doing to protect registrants?
  • Where do we get and how do we spend our money?
  • When will we run out of IPv4 addresses?
  • How many documents have we translated into languages other than English?

Introducing the new and improved Dashboard – ICANN Performance Metrics, Refreshed.

Our refreshed metrics provide updated reporting in an expansive, detailed, and more user-friendly, dynamic fashion.

Click the link above to gain insight into ICANN’s internal operations.

Review our Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in areas such as: Registrant Protection, Global Participation, Finance, IDNs, and more.

Accountability and transparency are part of our core values and our commitment to the Internet community.

These refreshed metrics are a testament to that as well as an invitation for you to participate.

In reviewing the data, if you are unable to find what you need, or if you have any suggestions on how to improve, we would like to hear from you; please email: dashboard-updates@icann.org.

Where are the financials on the .ORG Top Level Domain ?

With 8,000,000 .ORG domains at $6 / yr that is $56,000,000 going where ? to whom ? offshore ?

Why would .XXX be handed to the same company (Afilias) that runs .ORG ? How does that increase competition ?

How does ICANN account for PAYOLA* paid directly from TLD Registries to the various Root Server Operators & DNS Platforms ?

Why would a ccTLD pay (donate) $1,000,000 per year to a Private ICANN Root Server Operator… (to remain prominent in their server) ?

Is the $1,000,000 per TLD per Root Server Platform common ? and described in detail to potential new TLD Registry Applicants ?

* PAYOLA – Packaged as a “donation” (wink wink nod nod) to Non-Profit Corporations not shown in ICANN reports as “Related Parties”.
