Verisign has come up with the top 10 trending keywords in both .com and .net and the resluts aren’t surprising. ‘Hemp’ tops the list in both the categories. Its recent legalization in Canada and some states of US is the key driving factor here.

Note: Each list was developed by examining keyword registration growth relative to the preceding month, such that those keywords with the highest percentage of registration growth are being reported on. This method is used to eliminate commonly registered keywords, such as “online” and “shop,” to provide a true look at monthly trends. In order to be included, a keyword must experience a minimum threshold in registration growth month over month. Qualifying keywords with the highest volume of registrations are then ranked and included in the list.
