Media domain

Register a .news Domain

.news is a domain extension centered on breaking news, investigative journalism, news publishing, updates and journalistic portfolios. It is relevant to news publishers and journalists, independent bloggers and reporters, and organizations publishing updates or event news and can be used for breaking-news site, investigative journalism, journalist portfolio, local news publication, and company news page. Because the topic is carried by the ending itself, the full domain can describe what the site offers without relying on a generic extension.
