Frequently asked questions

What share of .studio domains are effectively unprotected?

66.3% of the 190,334 graded .studio domains score an F, meaning core protections like enforced DMARC are missing and the domain can typically be email-spoofed. As of 2026-07-29.

Does this cover every Creative business?

No. It covers the businesses that chose the .studio ending. Most Creative firms sit on a generic ending like .com and are not captured here — treat this as a sector-flavoured sample, not a census of the whole industry.
