    Overview

    • .reviews is a generic top-level domain (gTLD) created through ICANN's New gTLD Program.
    • It is intended to support websites related to reviews and consumer feedback and is categorized under commerce-oriented gTLDs.
    • The registry operator listed for .reviews is Rightside (United TLD Holdco, Ltd.), a Demand Media subsidiary.

    History

    • The original applicant for .reviews was Donuts (Extra Cover, LLC).
    • Donuts assigned the rights to .reviews to Rightside (United TLD Holdco, Ltd.) — a transfer announced in January 2014.
    • A Registry Agreement was signed on 13 September 2013 after passing Initial Evaluation.
    • .reviews was delegated to the DNS Root Zone on 11 February 2014, completing the successful application and delegation process.

    Usage and Audience

    • The TLD was proposed as a space to provide "greater expression on the Internet," aimed at review-related and commerce uses.
    • It is positioned as an open gTLD suitable for sites and services offering reviews, ratings, and consumer feedback.

    Registration Rules

    • The application and registry strategy described .reviews as an open TLD without pre-registration policies.
    • The registry indicated it would not use pre-registration verification, stating such verification could deny legitimate registrants access.
    • The operator committed to adhering to ICANN registration policies and planned clearly defined remediation and takedown procedures to control abuse.
    • A Registry Agreement with ICANN governs .reviews (signed 13 September 2013, later assigned to Rightside).
