What is .hi.cn TLD

.hi.cn denotes a geographic namespace within China’s .cn domain space, commonly used by entities connected to Hainan Province. In webatla’s taxonomy, we treat .hi.cn as a distinct TLD string for measurement of .hi.cn domains and .hi.cn websites across the global DNS. Contextually, policies align with the .cn registry, while usage reflects local identity and Mandarin- or Hainan-facing audiences. Today, we index 1,062 active domains, of which 541 resolve as live sites and 541 publish DNS records. Adoption spans 19 countries, indicating cross-border operation and parking alike. These metrics help brands, researchers, and cybersecurity teams benchmark regional digital presence. Download our .hi.cn datasets to explore the full corpus.

History and key features of .hi.cn TLD

Historically, .hi.cn has functioned as a regional label within China’s .cn hierarchy, serving organizations connected to Hainan. As with all .hi.cn domains, naming rules and dispute processes follow .cn registry policy, producing consistent, compliance-driven operation. In practice, .hi.cn websites often signal local services, tourism, and government-related information while remaining accessible to global audiences. Recent activity is steady rather than explosive: we observed 0 new registrations last week and 2 in December 2025, with live sites (541) closely matching domains that publish DNS (541). This parity indicates active configuration rather than purely speculative holding across the zone. Our longitudinal indexing quantifies churn, host diversity, and redirects to map how this namespace evolves over time. Download historical .hi.cn datasets to analyze trends yourself.

Why and who choose the .hi.cn domain

Organizations pick .hi.cn to communicate geographic relevance to Hainan-based markets while retaining .cn trust signals. We see .hi.cn domains adopted by travel operators, logistics firms, local enterprises, universities, and municipal projects that need recognisable regional branding. For content delivery and discoverability, .hi.cn websites benefit when audiences expect Chinese-language services or island-focused information, while cross-border entities use them for localization or defensive coverage. At present, the zone counts 1,062 active names, with 541 live sites and usage observed in 19 countries, offering a measurable footprint to evaluate competitors and partners. Such metrics support security scanning, market sizing, and portfolio rationalization for registrants and investigators alike. Download the current .hi.cn corpus from webatla to start benchmarking.
