New Shopify Stores, including pre-launch

Shopify stores detected from public Certificate Transparency logs, usually within an hour of their custom domain's first HTTPS certificate (median 0.4 h, measured on 4,168 stores on 2026-10-05), often while the store is still behind its password page. Source: public Certificate Transparency logs, public DNS and RDAP, and each store's own public storefront metadata. The radar samples those logs, so it does not catch every new Shopify store.

As of 2026-10-06: 4563 stores detected since 2026-09-26, in 117 countries, 1505 of them (33 %) pre-launch at their last status check. Top countries: US (1518), FR (314), GB (258), IN (230), ES (220), PK (197). Top niches: General store (728), Fashion & Apparel (466), Home & Garden (324), Beauty & Skincare (261), Jewelry & Watches (194).

Files

Config	File	Content
sample_2026_10_05	data/sample_2026-10-05.csv	50 stores, frozen on 2026-10-05: this file will not change
stats_by_country	data/stats_by_country.csv	Store and pre-launch counts per country, whole database
stats_by_niche	data/stats_by_niche.csv	Store and pre-launch counts per niche, whole database

Columns of the sample: domain, store_name, country, currency, niche, status, products, ships_to, registered_on, cert_seen, first_seen, dns_status. status is pre-launch (password page) or live, as observed when the store was detected; niche is guessed from public product titles and is Unknown (no products yet) before the first product.

The sample is frozen. The two stats tables cover the whole database and are updated when new stores are added or statuses are re-checked (last update: 2026-10-06 13:33 UTC).
