Top-level domain
.news domains
Domains built for headlines on .news
.news is a descriptive top-level domain for journalism, media outlets, newsletters, and anything that publishes timely updates. The word does the work for you, so a .news address tells visitors what to expect before they read a single story. It suits independent reporters, community papers, company press hubs, niche coverage sites, and project changelogs that want a clear, topical identity. The main trade-off is reach: .com remains the default people type and recall most easily, so a .news domain can pair well with a matching .com or stand on its own when the name reads naturally with "news" as the ending (for example local.news or crypto.news). Availability also tends to be better than crowded namespaces, which helps short, memorable names surface. Unlike .dev and .app, .news has no special browser security requirement, so it behaves like an ordinary domain once configured. Registration cost varies by registrar, and some premium one-word names carry higher pricing. If your project is built around publishing and currency, .news signals that purpose directly and credibly.

FAQ
What does the .news domain mean?
It is a descriptive top-level domain meant for news outlets, journalism, newsletters, and media publishing. The ending signals that a site shares timely updates or coverage.
Who should use a .news domain?
Independent journalists, local and niche news sites, company press and announcement pages, and newsletters that want their purpose clear from the address. It works best when the name reads naturally with news as the ending.
Is .news a good fit compared to .com?
If publishing is your core activity, .news states that instantly and often has better availability for short names. The trade-off is that .com is still the default people remember, so many owners hold both.
How do I check if a specific .news domain is available?
Search the exact name you want on domainsearch.sh to see if that .news domain is open. Availability is per name, so one option can be taken while a close variant is free.
