About the .ADS domain

What is the .ADS domain?

The .ads is a brand (.brand) domain delegated to the root zone on February 5, 2015, and managed by Charleston Road Registry Inc., the entity through which Google Inc. operates several of its corporate extensions, such as .goog or .gle.

As with most single-registrant brand domains, .ads is not available for public registration under any circumstances: Google reserves the extension for exclusively internal use, likely linked to its digital advertising platform, with no applications accepted from third parties, individuals, or external companies. There is, therefore, no registrar offering this domain to the general public.
