.youtube Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .youtube Domain

Video sharing, streaming, and creator services sit behind .youtube, a restricted extension from ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program. Video platforms carry a creator-account exposure distinct from ordinary consumer services: channel credentials control audience access and monetisation revenue, which makes account takeover directly profitable and a recurring target for phishing aimed at creators specifically.

Use covers platform and creator destinations, help and policy resources, and regional sites. Registration is closed to the public and the extension carries no aftermarket. The string compounds a pronoun with a colloquial term for television, a construction characteristic of internet-era product naming.
