Hot Keywords for June 2025: Artificial Intelligence Tops the List

According to the latest statistics released by Afternic, AI became the most popular keyword in domain name transactions in June 2025, maintaining its top position. This trend not only reflects the continued explosive growth of artificial intelligence in the global technology and business sectors, but also confirms the high market demand for related domain names.

My and Home ranked second and third, respectively, on the list. As general English keywords, they have wide applicability and brand scalability. Domain names beginning with "My" tend to emphasize personalization and a sense of belonging, while "Home" is highly relevant to industries such as real estate, home furnishings, and lifestyle services, making it suitable for building brands centered around family and living.

Meanwhile, the gambling keyword "Bet" ranked in the top three in May but fell back to fifth place in June. Gambling-related domain names have always been a significant component of the transaction market, and fluctuations reflect the periodic changes in buyer demand. In contrast, "Group" performed more reliably, rising from third place last month to fourth place, demonstrating that domain names with "Group" as a suffix or body remain active in enterprise and organizational applications.

Notably, AI-related domain names are far more popular than other keywords, extending beyond technology companies to encompass a wide range of industries, including finance, education, and healthcare. As artificial intelligence increasingly penetrates various application scenarios, domain names containing the "AI" keyword are increasingly viewed by companies as a crucial component of their branding strategies.

Overall, the June rankings on Afternic exhibit several key characteristics: Emerging technology keywords such as AI continue to perform strongly, demonstrating the enormous potential of future tech-driven domain names. Furthermore, traditional, general keywords such as "My," "Home," and "Group" maintain steady market demand, demonstrating a trend toward diversification in brand naming.
