Expired News & Current Affairs domains with backlinks
Updated
This page lists 2,061 expired News & Current Affairs domains with backlinks. Each has expired, is available to register, has referring domains that survived the original site going offline, and was classified as News & Current Affairs from its archived content. Names are masked on Free; the Starter and Business plans show every name. Every metric is open. News domains were newspapers, news outlets and current-affairs magazines, and their links come from other publications and reference pages citing their reporting. A news site about one subject is filed under that subject instead.
About this list
Every listing is verified the same way as the rest of the directory. Availability is re-checked against the live DNS root over DNS-over-HTTPS, and a listing that turns out to be registered is removed. Referring domains are counted from our own web crawl, not from a paid link index. Site history comes from archived captures: the archived snapshot count and the span of years the site was captured. Revised Score blends link-graph centrality, referring domains and site history into one 0 to 100 grade, computed across the whole directory.
Category evidence exists for part of the directory, and this page grows as classification runs. Compare the News & Current Affairs listings on age, referring domain band, named linking sources, site history and Revised Score before choosing one.

Frequently asked questions
- How do I find expired News & Current Affairs domains?
- Browse this page. Every listing has been classified as News & Current Affairs from its archived content, has expired, is available to register, and has referring domains counted from our web crawl. Names are masked on Free, the Starter and Business plans show every name, and metrics are open. Starter and Business show the name; then register it at any registrar.
- How is the category of an expired domain decided?
- From what the site was. Each domain's archived pages are classified into one of the directory's categories, and only a confident classification is stored. A domain whose history is ambiguous shows no category and is not on this page.
- Why does the category of an expired domain matter?
- The topical fit is the point. Google's expired domain abuse policy targets expired domains repurposed to host unrelated content. A News & Current Affairs domain used for a new News & Current Affairs site keeps its history; the same domain used for something unrelated should not expect to.
